Congratulations to Scholarship Recipient Mary Aghughu!
We extend a sincere congratulations to Mary Aghughu, the most recent recipient of the 10 Women of Hope Scholarship at Chattahoochee Technical College. She is in the process of earning her Associate of Science in Nursing ASN, which is driven by her passion to make a positive difference in the lives of others. Her goal is to graduate from CTC, earn her RN license, and to enter the workforce as a nurse. She then hopes to further her education at a four-year university to earn her Bachelors of Science in Nursing, BSN.
"Growing up in Serrekunda, The Gambia, access to higher education was often a distant dream due to financial constraints. However, with the gracious assistance of scholarships like yours, I am now able to pursue my academic ambitions at Chattahoochee Tech with renewed vigor and determination," Aghughu shared. We are thrilled to help her achieve her educational goals.
