Impact

“Hello, My name is Alyssa Gollon. Thank you so much for the opportunity to share my story with you and I am so very grateful to receive this scholarship. Going back to school as a returning adult with 5 kids and hearing loss was a daunting task but I am so happy to say that I have been successful this far into my degree. I am proud to be able to show others that going back to college with a hearing impairment doesn’t have to be scary and anyone can be successful as well. Again, thank you so much for this opportunity, it means the world to me to be able to share my story with others. Sincerely, Alyssa”
