From our mailbag: University of Phoenix Scholarship Recipient



Another great day for a letter from our mailbag:

I wanted to let you know that I have completed my degree on March 4. I was so excited to have the opportunity to accomplish the dream I have always had! I finished with a GPA of 3.93 which is not too shabby. I actually completed my education early (I was supposed to finish next October) but doubled my classes for several months to complete it earlier. I have begun my mission of finding the right job for my degree now. I figured that God placed this opportunity in my hands and I know that He has an ultimate plan for me with this education.  
My degree is in Human Services with an emphasis in management. I am hoping that I will eventually make an impact in many children's lives besides the ones we have made in our home. I want to thank you, once again, for the incredible gift the National Foster Parent Association has given me. Without this, my dream would never have come true. It has changed my life!
