“The organization being recognized here today is one that should value themselves greatly in their efforts to support the dreams and aspirations of others. Being the winning contestant of the scholarship, I am proud to recognize and thank you. A blessing within itself, God has blessed me with a family that gave me a gift that will enhance my learning experience and guide me closer to the road of success. While already on route to my career path, the funding of your organization will release a burden that most college students have to deal with. In my eyes I’m not the only individual being blessed with a gift, your foundation within itself will prosper and within the household of your own. Your organization is the first step to success. If you can truly visualize the impact your scholarship makes on an individual, you will see the hope that your son Jacob aspired to is resonating in all the individuals that are recipients of his scholarship. In my journey, your son’s future dreams will resonate in my journey to success. I will carry the drive and motivation he had as a young individual to become who he always wanted to be. Jacob will remain in my heart and be the parter that he wish to have had in his career. Once again, thank you for choosing me as the recipient of your scholarship.”
“I’m currently a senior at Golden Valley High School and I am emailing you guys to really thank you for the scholarship that I received yesterday. I wanted to let you guys know that I am really thankful since this came though in the best moment, because just a couple of days ago I was doubting if I was going to be able to attend college, since my financial situation was not the best, and with this surprise everything will be so much easier, and I would be really glad to help you guys back in a certain point of my life because I know there’s a lot of students like me out there that would love to keep getting a better education but their financial situation kinda stops them, and that was my case. So anyways I just wanted to thank you guys for what you do for the students in Santa Clarita.”
“I wanted to thank you for the incredible impact you have made on my life as a Jacob Zamora Scholarship recipient. I am beyond honored to have received this scholarship and I am inspired by your family’s strength. This has been such a blessing to my life.”
