Honor Society Foundation, I am so grateful for your support! Fields like social justice are often heavily under-funded and any support helps those of us who want to walk this path be able to focus our time and resources on projects that make a positive impact in our communities. Please know that your financial assistance will help allow me continue to grow and work on interpersonal violence -an area that I have been immensely passionate about for much of my career! Sincerely, Adrian Berg
