Dear Mr. Gupta, Being chosen as the Dr. C.L. Gupta Young Scholars Award recipient humbles and honors me greatly. This scholarship shows the transforming power of faith, compassion, and kindness in the potential of students rather than just offering financial aid. Your help has imprinted on my life's defining moments. As I get ready to begin the first term of my master's degree, this award has lightened a great financial load from my hands and let me exclusively focus on my studies and future goals. Though I have always dreamed of going further in education, from modest beginnings, I knew reaching my goals would need tenacity and will to reach them. It is a privilege for me to continue your inspirational dedication to empower outstanding students, promote inclusiveness, and shape the next leaders. I promise to give great effort to maximize this opportunity and to greatly benefit my field and community. As you have done for me, I hope to one day be in a position to pay this kindness forward and assist others on their road. Your generosity will never be forgotten; thank you from the bottom of my heart for believing in me as well as for supporting my potential. Your support has motivated me once more and sharpened my will to reach high standards. Not only a scholarship, but this gift will shape my future and way of life. With deepest gratitude, Moriah Holland.
