SPONSOR A SCHOLARSHIP

“My daughters would greatly benefit from the scholarship because it would enable them to participate in classes and have experiences that we could otherwise not afford. They are interested in so many things that I cannot sign them up because of finances. I would like to sign them up for summer camps especially. My seven-year-old loves science and dance, and my five-year-old loves art and gymnastics. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.”
