“In being a single mother to two young boys, the decision to go back to school and pursue a nursing degree was a little daunting,” she said.

“I was unsure if I could financially accomplish this task on my own. With the help of a scholarship, I now have the opportunity to teach my boys that anything is possible if you work hard, dream big and never, ever give up.”
