2019 Winners' Acknowledgments

Dear Council 2 Scholarship Committee,

Thank you very much for selecting me for a scholarship. I'm very grateful to have the support as I study nursing, which is more expensive than other degrees. The financial help you are giving me toward tuition means I will have more money to spend on the essentials for my degree (transportation to hospitals/clinics for internship, uniforms, medical textbooks, etc.). I look forward to updating you every year as I go through the nursing program.
Thank you again for investing in my education.

Gratefully,
Aubrietta McCrone

To whom this may concern,

I am very happy to receive the Council 2 Golf Scholarship. This letter is in appreciation of the generosity your organization has shown to me since my first scholarship awarded to me one year ago. I will be starting my sophomore year of college at Washington State University this August, pursuing a degree in Management Information Systems. Thanks to Council 2 and their scholarship committee(s), I will be better prepared to complete my schooling and take the next steps toward a new career. I truly appreciate Council 2’s generosity, as their contribution has been tremendously valuable to my post-secondary education and career aspirations. This scholarship will prove to be a vital gift and contribution to the fulfillment of my life goals, and for this, I am very grateful.

Thank you again for your support. Go Cougs!

Sincerely,
Philip Kilian
