Review for Native Forward Scholars Fund, Albuquerque, NM, USA
AIGC is an amazing organization that succeeds in their goal of supporting Native Americans in obtaining a higher education. I am a Yupik from Mountain Village, Alaska and grew up living a financially impoverished, rural lifestyle without the same educational opportunities as most Americans. I graduated high school after four years at a boarding school over 1000 miles away from my home and family and was awarded the Gates Millennium Scholarship through AIGC. They have made the most beneficial difference in my life by providing financial and social support throughout the entirety of my undergraduate studies. I would not have been able to afford the education that I acquired thus far and am pursuing without the support of AIGC. The education acquired thus far is already benefiting my life and those of my people within the Asa'carsarmiut Tribe. AIGC works with incredible service and understanding of my life and educational goals, providing me life-changing opportunities that wouldn't be possible without them. I look forward to continue working with them for future educational endeavors.
