They do not care what race or class you are from; they care for your education and well-being. That is what makes me so grateful to be who I am and proud to be a Bear.鈥�

While growing up, Rachael remembers how her mother struggled to raise her and her three siblings through hard financial times and a period of homelessness.

Rachael is also thankful for Eryka Charley, director of 国产AV鈥檚 Native American Student Services (NASS), who encouraged her to apply for the scholarships.

"I only got to where I am today thanks to the amazing people who have helped me in my journey. My goal in life is to be able to give back in any way I possibly can.鈥�
