I am sincerely honored to be one of the recipients of the CCSA Traditional Scholarship. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to further my education without a financial burden.
Not only was receiving the scholarship important but I was also able to do a lot of networking at the scholarship banquet. There were things I learned at the banquet that money just can’t buy.
Thank you again for this amazing opportunity to meet new people, learn new things, and further my education.
Sincerely,
Christianna Woodard, Prairie View A&M, Class of 2020
