2021 Letter

Thank you for giving me this opportunity, it truly is a blessing to have this chance to make my dreams come true! The 3to1 Foundation scholarship helped me out a lot in my first year attending Texas Tech, and set me up for success. It allows me to be able to buy the textbooks and supplies I need and even helps pay for part of my tuition. It is more than money to me, it’s a chance to be able to follow my dreams, and more importantly, it gives me motivation knowing that I have people who believe in me to succeed. If it wasn’t for this scholarship none of this last year would have been possible and I’m extremely appreciative of that.

I will be entering my Junior year at Texas Tech with a declared major in Supply Chain Management with a minor in Business Management. I have been working very hard this last year to prove my worth to everyone who has helped and supported me. In college, I have been keeping my eyes on my future for my own sake, and to set a good example for my brother and sister in the hopes that they will do the same for themselves. They will be graduating in 2022, this will come sooner than they think, and I want them to come to me for guidance and support. It is great to know that I can go fulltime with my classes with these funds; otherwise, it would take a lot longer to finish and start my career.

Once again, thank you so much for the support and I promise to continue proving my worth!

2020 Letter

I was very excited to find out that I had been chosen to receive the 3to1 foundation scholarship for 2020. I am greatly appreciative of them for choosing me, this scholarship is much more than money to me, it is an opportunity for me to shape my own future into a successful one. Over the past year I have been going to my community college and met a lot of older people who were going back to school to earn their degree, which helped me to see the value that a good education will have in my future. This coming fall I will be attending Texas Tech University and this scholarship will take a huge burden off of my back and my families as well. I still have a younger brother and sister that will be going to college in two years, so it is great knowing that I am leaving a little more money behind for them to pursue their dreams in the near future.

Thank you for helping me chase my dreams at Texas Tech and believing in me, I promise to do you all proud in 2020.
