“Dear Crystal Dreams Foundation, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for choosing me to receive a scholarship. I really appreciate your helping me further my education. The rising cost of tuition, books and supplies made it harder and harder to complete my degree requirements. Thanks to you, I had the money to complete my degree requirements and graduate. Thank you again. I really appreciate all you’ve done.”

“The S.T.E.P.U.P. program helped me make connections around the city that can push me forward into success. It also taught me about how to start, run, and succeed in business. While enrolled in the program I learned what it takes to be an entrepreneur in the 21st century.”

“I am delighted and extremely grateful to accept your offer of sponsorship of $2,000 to relieve me of some of the financial burdens I have with paying for my education at Howard University. As I get further into my education and closer to graduating, the cost of tuition as well as living is increasing, becoming overwhelming. With this scholarship renewal, I will be able to better focus on my studies and graduating rather than solely paying for education expenses. I want to give you my gratitude for supporting my efforts to continue in higher education. I look forward to this semester. Thank you.”
