 "I fell in love with Lewis the first time I visited the campus but feared that I could not attend this school for financial reasons. However, thanks to scholarships such as the National Board Alumni Annual Scholarship, I am able to finance my education, grow as a person, and gain more knowledge as I work in the College of Education to become a teacher."

Darian Blanks"As an older student who spent years after my military career trying to decide on a major that would truly make me happy, I exhausted my veterans' educational benefits. Were it not for this scholarship and the other forms of financial assistance I have received from Lewis, my dreams of becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker may have been delayed due to financial hardship…Being a recipient of this scholarship, I am given a sense of hope that I can complete my degree with Lewis and graduate as scheduled."
