      The Final Push Scholarship
      Graduating is very important to me because since I am a first generation student and coming from a low income family I have always struggled financially to pay for my classes and materials but I've always worked hard to continue my education to get my degree because I want to become a strong independent women and have my own career to be financially stable to support myself but also help out my parents since they've given up so much to help me achieve all my dreams. I also think graduating is important because for me it represents growth, change, and definitely shows that anything is possible as long as I work hard and never give up. Graduating in my opinion is just the beginning of a new chapter in my life in helping me get a better job, and starts the road for new adventures coming up. Since I am pursuing my bachelor's degree to go to medical school to become a Pediatrician, I want to use my knowledge to help out low income families because I know that many can't afford to take their children to the hospital and don't have the resources that many of us have access to. I want to make an impact in my community by treating children of parents who are not as fortunate as others be healthy and keep them safe.
