How has the Hope Fund made a positive impact on your time at Alvernia?
The Hope Fund has allowed me to focus on my classes and learning without worrying about any financial burdens. Without it, I would not have been able to experience all the amazing opportunities Alvernia has offered me.
What are your future plans, and how do you feel assistance from the Hope Fund has or will help you get there?
My future plans include graduating this spring with my master’s degree in athletic training. The Hope Fund has allowed me to focus on my rigorous class load and prepare me for my next steps.
