Learn MoreWhy They Love Being a Student
What truly makes Ava "America’s favorite" is her "why." Every late-night study session is a tribute to me, her mother. As I live with Multiple Sclerosis, I have always held her education in the highest regard. Ava transforms my dreams for her into reality through sheer dependability and grit. She pushes through fear not only for herself but to honor the education we both treasure. “School first!”
Favorite Subject & Why
Ava is driven by a passion for human biology. Her start in the biomedical program gave her a strong foundation in how the body functions. Her transition into the dental program as a junior defined the path. Ava thrives on the hands-on nature of dentistry. Currently, she is gaining real-world experience assisting at a local dental office. This has solidified her desire to turn her favorite subject into a career.
How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
This $20,000 would help to bridge the canyon between her massive potential and our modest means. It helps to ensure her late-night study sessions lead to a degree, not a debt. Ava has the dependability and the heart; these funds provide the way.
