I am honored to be one of the recipients of the Gertrude McKenzie Memorial Scholarship. Thank you for your generous support which lessened my financial burden for this semester.
I am a nursing student attending my last semester in the program. I plan to continue my education and pursue my BSN degree once I successfully complete this program. For the past few years, I’ve been working as a cashier to pay for my expenses, while taking classes at LaGuardia Community College. Keeping in mind how competitive the nursing program is, I always stayed in fear of not doing well in my class due to the amount of time I spent working. However, I never gave up on my dream and kept working hard towards achieving my goal. I successfully completed all my classes
