Erica’s Angels Scholarship
Hello! My name is Diamond Nangle. I come from a low-income household. I started playing volleyball when I was in elementary school. It has helped me to make new friends and to connect with others. It was also a great way to let off some steam when I was feeling stressed or overwhelmed in high school.
By playing volleyball: I learned to work in a team-based environment. It changed my old perspective; to viewing things as a whole, rather than staying single-minded. The actions that I took could affect the others on my team. My actions could change the game: into a win or a loss. The importance of friendship has benefited me very much.
By having friends who have supported me along the way has encouraged me to be a more positive individual. By being a friend to those in need I've become a better person.
Friendship has helped me through the toughest times by aiding me to figure who I am. Furthermore, it has shaped me in such a way: to figure out who my people are. My supportive friends have helped me through storms and tribulations. By having healthy supports: contributed to my inner strength with handling stressful situations.
By continuing to play volleyball with my friends: I have learned to cooperate with others. Also, to work as a team. I will continue to apply volleyball to my life by evaluating how my every action impacts others. In a way, making friends and playing volleyball really did support me to feel more empathy. Additionally, to think of how some of my actions can have certain consequences on myself and others.
One day at school, I saw a girl who needed help. She seemed visibly upset. It seemed to have been that she had trouble hitting the volleyball over the net. I offered my assistance and showed her the correct way to hit the ball over the net. Clenching both fists: hand in hand. She finally hit the ball over the net. It made my day when I saw how gleeful she was: that she finally made that volleyball go over the net. She was the girl on our team.
By helping her out, we ended up winning the game that day. We jumped in celebration and hugged each other. That was when I knew I should continue to help others. Even the little actions we make: tend to make a BIG difference.
Curtis Holloway Memorial Scholarship
Hi there, I'm Diamond! I am a undergraduate freshman student at Southern New Hampshire University. I am pursuing a bachelor's degree in Graphic Design. This is all thanks to my mom! Let me tell you a little about her. Ever since I was a child: my mother has always supported me. Through thick and thin: she has always advocated for me, when the world was against me. I was the bullied child in junior high school: and when no one cared, she advocated for me.
I was depressed for quite some time throughout the whole duration of my adolescence. It felt impossible for me to feel comfortable in my own skin. Everyday felt like I was a laughing stock. Even after graduating: I was happy but the effects of bullying gave me social anxiety. To elaborate: social anxiety is the fear of public spaces.
My mom has been keeping me strong: telling me it's going to be okay and by taking me to get the treatment I needed. She also tells me to read her positive affirmations that she writes on the fridge daily. She tries her best and it really does help. My father has never been in the picture ever since I was a baby. So I do not know anything about him or my other family. Even though it was hard for mom to raise me alone: she has triumphed over these challenges.
She continued to make me feel loved and cherished. She made me love Christmas with her nice gifts every year. She made me grateful for every moment that passes by. My dearest mother helps me with my loans and with my finances. My mom is really the only reason: I have made it this far today.
Additionally, thanks to my mother: I continue to be an ardent and growing learner. I will never stop learning and I will continue to grow. Everyday I learn so many things: from problem-solving math skills to understanding the effects of global warming; and irrigation. She has taught me to give to those who are in need by: donating to the needy. She also taught me to care for animals, too.
She continues to help and support me through all the phases of my life. By supplying me with books and school supplies. Also, by serving as a mentor when I have trouble understanding a problem at school. I will further my higher education to pursue my dreams of becoming an animator. Thanks, mom!
