Thank you so much. This scholarship means a lot to me because it gets me one step closer to reaching my dreams. Growing up in DRC, it is rare for anyone to pursue higher education. It is even more rare for women, especially in STEM fields. Being chosen for this scholarship gives me more confidence and belief that I can overcome the challenges of being an international student with a limited support system. I hope to honor Maggie's legacy by fully applying myself and making the most of my educational opportunity. Thank you again, this really means so much to me.
