Going to college is number one on my mind. I have worked so hard throughout school to stay on top of my class studies, and make good grades. I like to spread my time and talents throughout sports, working, and being very involved in my community. I strive to be an Accounting. I feel in love with the field in high school. I was awarded the Accounting Department Award. That meant so much to me, because it solidified my passion for hard work and dedication has paid off. My other passion is community service. I was born and raised in Camden City NJ. My city is known for its violence, drug addiction, poor dilapidated home, and huge homeless population. I love volunteering and giving back to my community. I have seen, those that live in this city, lives get destroyed from gun violence, and drug addiction. Giving back gives me a sense of peace knowing that we all can make something more of ourselves. We can all strive to change our surroundings for the better. Although I may have grown up in harsh conditions, I am not a product of my environment. I am the change that my community needs to see. I show every day that I can make it through all things. My mother has instilled God in every part of my life. She has been a single mother since I was 8 years old, due to my father passing away from cancer. I have seen her struggle to make ends meet, I have seen her struggle to ensure I have a great education. My mother is my rock and she is all I have. Being awarded this scholarship will not only help her out financially, but also show her she did well raising me. Thank you.
