    I am so incredibly thankful for your support, and also the opportunity to share my experiences for the given topic. Knowing the topic can be sensitive to many, I am certain there were many beautiful essays to choose from, and could not be more grateful that I was selected from a very strong group of candidates and finalists. Your support will not end with me; I hope to extend your hand out in the future as I further my studies in Neuroscience and provide outlets to teens affected by addiction. Beyond significantly helping me financially, your support motivates me to continue pursuing my current academic interests, knowing I am validated by an incredible donor with a drive to make change. I am committed to making the most of your support by putting my all into academics and hope to one day give back to others in the way you are supporting my goals. Thank you very much, and have a fantastic 2025!
