This scholarship will help support my situation to finish my current program since I am a single mom, and I am working hard to get higher education to support my son and myself.
    Bold Technology Matters Scholarship
    Cybersecurity is one of the newest technology that I am super excited about. During the pandemic time, people were dependent on the internet more than 100% of their time, which opened the door for hackers to increase their attacks against organizations, companies, medical research, and individuals. Malicious hackers attempting to gain unauthorized access to data would not give up quickly, and they will continue to find ways to avoid even the most stringent protection measures. It's partly due to the adoption of modern technologies to improve the defense. Since Cybersecurity will extend to guard against hackers as long as we have them, cybersecurity will remain a popular technology and more open, especially for women, before they weren't involved.
    3Wishes Women’s Empowerment Scholarship
    There are several ways to support women and empower them, Some of these ways are, Boost their self-esteem. Empowered women go on to empower others—so encourage the women around you, and make them feel special and strong. Encourage your friends to speak up and make sure they know the value of their opinions so that they’re never scared to use their voice. Help your daughter, sister, or any female friend celebrate her self-expression from a young age. There’s no “right way” for girls to dress. Whether she loves to dress up in full princess attire, or she likes to keep a stylishly low profile in some loafers for girls, encourage her to be her authentic self. And fashion isn’t the only way to assert her unique personality—support her interests wholeheartedly, whether she’s into sports, drama, band, or academics. Also, we need to help women to shut down negativity. Women are constantly exposed to negativity as they’re often held to unrealistic standards of the beauty displayed in magazines, on TV, and more recently on social media. While our near-constant presence on the web has created a culture where women and men can more easily express themselves, negativity online has become a big problem, especially among teenagers. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported in 2017 that 14.9% of high school students had experienced cyberbullying in the last year. Lift women by taking a stance against negative comments online, at the office, in school, and wherever you go. Combat negativity by promoting body positivity, intelligence, and authenticity. Don’t be afraid to shut down negativity directly and honestly, your fellow females will appreciate you.it is essential to be open and honest. This one can be tricky because it’s not easy to be vulnerable. Sometimes it can be hard to share your experiences with others, but it can play an important role in giving other women a voice. Without women like Rosa Parks, Malala Yousafzai, and Susan B. Anthony, women wouldn’t have the rights we have today. Thanks to these ladies speaking out and sharing their struggles, real changes have been made: legislation, societal expectations, and even how women view themselves in the mirror each day. The world has been transformed by women who rose to the occasion to combat misogyny. While it’s important to share your own story, it’s just as important to listen to other women’s stories and experiences. There are tons of great resources out there to read, listen and share women’s narratives. Rothy taps into the minds of female game-changers to find out how they’re disrupting their industries and inspiring women in the workplace. these are some tips that can help empower women, but I believe there are more effective ways to help women worldwide to be powerful.
