"Without the opportunity granted to me from the Blackhawk Scholarship Fund, it would not have been possible for me to attend Saint Mary’s. This scholarship helped me financially by helping cover both my tuition and textbook costs. Most importantly, the BSF allowed me to break generational barriers by helping me become the first person in my family to ever attend college." Lizeth De La Cruz 2023 Scholarship Recipient St Mary’s College |
"I've always wanted to study at Columbia University, but with the financial burden that comes with college, I wasn't sure if I would be able to make it to New York. However, with the help of BSF, my family is able to afford my attendance at Columbia, and I am so grateful that I am able to pursue my academic goals and dreams here." Shira Weiss-Ishai 2023 Scholarship Recipient Columbia University |
