Dear Costonis family, I am beyond grateful and honored to have received the John J Costonis Scholarship. A classical music education has become a restricted path for many, myself included. I've prayed to God for help in affording my tuition next year. This is an answer to my prayers. My dream is to finish my Bachelors in violin performance and go on to a masters, and possibly a Doctorate. After I complete my education, I plan to join an orchestra, form a chamber group, and create my own music program that will provide young musicians with accessible classical training. My ultimate dream is to fulfill God's will for my life, through sharing music and spreading its peacefulness and joy. It is your generosity that makes my dream possible and makes the world a better place. Thank you for believing in me! With much gratitude, Rose
