#tbt to a tiny lil handshake that ignited a part of me I never knew existed . This was the day I knew we had to do something…that I needed to do something extraordinary, just like my daughter. I need to be real with you guys for a minute. Every single application I receive is a face…a capable, inspiring, WORTHY face. I see a little piece of my own daughter in each and every one of them and it is deeply personal. I am on a mission to help as many of them as I can achieve their dreams of college this fall, and every year.Last year, even granting a record 32 scholarships (thanks y’all!) , I still had to say no to 20 of those faces. The need is great, and this 3/21 Pledge is our biggest push of the year, guys. We don’t have big corporate backers or big money that comes from other places. We are grass roots…and you guys are our roots that keep us grounded and growing!
