I was honored to receive the Optimist scholarship. Thank you so much for your incredible generosity. It is a great honor to be selected for this award. I will be starting college at UC Berkeley in the fall, and the scholarship will help pay for my expenses. Thank you again,

I am writing on behalf of Sierra House

our school community, and we are truly grateful for your contribution.
