Dashanna K. McNeil Memorial Scholarship
I have always looked up to superheroes for as long as I can remember. The superheroes' willingness to save people without seeking compensation was what I admired most about them. Even though I was aware that I would never be able to fly or save people, I still aspired to live a life similar to the fictional and nonfictional portrayal of superheroes I saw growing up. My goal was boosted by my arrival to the United States where I lived with my aunt who along with her colleagues, inspired me through her job in the medical field with her daily accounts of work. I could always make a connection between each story she told and the superheroes I idolized. I was incredibly proud to say that my aunt worked every day to save lives, and I aspired to be just like her.
I believed that working in the medical area was the most honorable profession anybody could pursue, but once I started playing football, everything changed. My aunt was apprehensive to let me play football, but after seeing my passion for the sport, she ultimately agreed. She advised me to exercise extreme caution since I lacked insurance and a serious injury would be expensive. This greatly surprised me because I had never considered the hospital's financial obligations and how they pertained to the patients. I would cover up any injuries I received while playing football, no matter how serious they were, so my aunt would not have to worry about me. The most notable injury was when I received a severe turf burn on my elbow and hid it by wearing long sleeves and sweatshirts the entire time. Due to this, the wound did not heal completely, leaving a scar that is still noticeable today. My aunt eventually caught on to me when she started noticing me constantly limping and swiftly removed me from the program.
I was furious that I had to stop playing the sport that gave me so much delight. My rage, however, was directed at the healthcare system. I could not understand why getting insurance was so pricey and difficult. I jumped at the opportunity to enroll in my school's Science Research class since I wanted to understand the medical field better which led to learning more about other concerning issues like gender and racial inequality etc. Some of my findings astonished me, such as the fact that in 2018, just 2.6% of active physicians in the United States were Black men. Learning more about it ignited a renewed desire in me to be the change that would make the current medical field into the one I admired as a child.
To ensure I reached my ambition, I diligently researched the medical field and made connections with many mentors who had worked in the medical industry. My study led me to the conclusion that one of the most underrepresented groups in the medical industry is male nurses. At that point, I resolved to do whatever I needed to alter it. I now understand that the existing healthcare system is not ideal and that diversity, economic stability, and social support are all urgently needed in the medical community. With the assistance of this scholarship, I will be closer to making changes to these issues.

Al-Haj Abdallah R Abdallah Muslim Scholarship

Even though I was aware that I would never be able to fly or save people, I still aspired to live a life similar to the fictional and nonfictional portrayal of superheroes I saw growing up. The reason I loved superheroes so much was that they seemed to uphold Muslim principles. While they did not pray 5 times a day or follow the teachings of Muhammed(PBUH). They always stayed loyal to themselves and did what was right in their hearts. My goal was boosted by my arrival to the United States where I lived with my aunt who along with her colleagues, inspired me through her job in the medical field with her daily accounts of work.
