TESTIMONIALS
"I attend a private Christian school that I wouldn’t be able to attend without help from scholarships, so LMG helped to make my college experience possible. I also loved the mentorship aspect - that is so incredibly needed today (especially for college students) so I’m so grateful for Chiquta and the way that she poured into me all through my freshman year."
Kaylie B.
"I was able to connect with Ms. Harris and talk about navigating this first year of college, especially during COVID times. I think that I really enjoyed having Ms. Harris to touch base with!"
Lisa D.
"When I was notified that I was a recipient, I had to call my mom immediately to let her know that I had actually won. Despite the fact that she was in a public setting, she screamed "Hallelujah!" from the depths of her soul. It was a beautiful moment because receiving scholarships is no easy task and I am truly grateful that I was selected."
