$10,000 September 2019 Scholarship Winner

Rachel Bartoe

LaGrange College

"In many ways, it is difficult to describe how much this scholarship is going to change my life. As a senior in nursing school, and in all of my years of college, I have never experienced a semester where I did not have to worry about paying for my tuition. For 6 years, I have battled the constant dilemma of working a full-time job, studying, and desperately spending any time I had left on scholarship essays. On many occasions, I found myself having to choose between studying vital information versus finding ways to finance college. I would ask myself, “what is more important? Being able to attend school, or getting an A on the exam?” While the journey has been challenging I have never once lost sight of the value an education can offer. When I first entered college, I set out to be a special needs teacher and while my love for the mentally ill and physically disabled population began to grow, so did my thirst for more knowledge. As a Psychology major, I came across a class that would change my life forever; The Study of Exceptional Children. To be more specific, this class changed my perspective of helping children who have severe disabilities by giving me the chance to directly work with and help such a population. I went from spending my weekends sleeping in and working at the pizza restaurant on broad street, to volunteering at Rome, Georgia’s miracle field where I played baseball with disabled children and adults. Once I graduated, I was floored to help children even more. Now that I am in nursing school, my dream is to work with children suffering from cancer and other chronic diseases. I aim to combine my psychology background with medical knowledge to help children not only heal physically but also emotionally and mentally. As a recipient of such a generous scholarship, I think about how I can bask in the curriculum of my last 2 semesters of nursing school. As a result of this scholarship, I feel as if I will be an even better nurse for my patients because I will be able to spend my last year of nursing school focusing on the material, versus working a full-time job and searching for scholarships. Thank you very much!!"

$1,000 Empire Scholarship 2019 Winner

Dana Henry

University of South Alabama

"My name is Dana. I am a Registered Nurse who has returned to school after 14 years to get my MSN! When I graduated with my Bachelor's degree, I honestly thought I was done with school. But after having 2 kids and settling into my nursing career, I decided I wanted more out of my career than a bachelor's degree could give me. I am now studying to become a Clinical Nurse Specialist while juggling the demands of being a wife, mother, and working part-time. One of the big hindrances for me to go back to school, besides the time commitment, was the money.

$1,000 Fortuna Scholarship 2019 Winner

Charrey Honkanen

University of Wisconsin-Green Bay

"My name is Charrey and I'm from Green Bay, Wisconsin. I graduated high school in 2017 and since then, I've been on a crazy journey. I started off college at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, but was yearning to go to my dream school, Ball State University. I ended up transferring after my Freshman year and I was having the time of my life as a Theatre major with an emphasis in Directing, T-Comm major, and French minor. I had really come out of my shell and I was figuring out who I was and what I wanted to really do in life, but plans changed when my financial plan backfired and I had to leave BSU. I've been working long hours between multiple jobs to pay off debt and am excited to be returning to school this Fall, sadly not to BSU, but back to UWGB. Though this setback has been tough, I've learned a lot of lessons from it about finances and world struggles. This scholarship is going to help me get back on my feet and I hope to accomplish all of my goals and become a director/writer and share my stories. For those who have been in my shoes before or are going through things like this right now, don't let your setbacks tear you down, let them be lessons and encouragement to build you back up and make you stronger."

$10,000 March 2019 Scholarship Winner

Mithali Pota

No School Listed

"Since an early age I was attracted to drawing and art. As a young child, I use to capture objects, people and situations with my crayons and water colors. I realized I could express myself through art more easily than words. They say a picture is worth a thousand words and I try to live by that proverb. As I got older, my interest in art matured and intersected with technology. I find myself using my Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator to create all sorts of unusual pictures, clip art, anime, cartoons. I'm the resident artist at home. I've taken up photography at school and with a school issued camera I capture pictures to go on my school's yearbook and fliers. Taking real life pictures and augmenting them in my software is my new craze. With my software I get to mix the real with the unreal to create an image that will flirt with your eyes. I also dabble with animation and cartooning. One day, I hope to create a character that is used in a Disney movie or a Marvel Comic. It would be exhilarating to see my work bring joy to the world. I've always wanted a professional drawing tablet and/or camera and I wish to buy these so as to continue my pursuit in visual and graphic arts. I will one step closer to improving my skill set so as to pursue a career in graphic design and visual arts. "
