Future Goals
I would like to set a fire in the next generation that motivates them to reach their full pull potential. Education is often presented as a sustainable solution to social injustice; I would like to be a part of this solution. I want to dedicate my life to educating future generations.

What makes the Ozanam Scholars unique?
The Ozanam Scholars differ from anything I have experienced because while they support the idea of charity, they focus primarily on eradicating the poverty and its effects on society.
