Twenty years ago, I was the recipient of this scholarship and it helped me tremendously since I was the 1st person in my family to attend college. I know the foundation will continue to help deserving young people making a difference in the world. 

I'm excited to celebrate Coca-Cola Scholars on #Giving Tuesday, a global day of giving back. This year, the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation and Alumni Advisory Board want to continue to cultivate a culture of giving by raising $20,000, which is the equivalent of a Coke Scholars scholarship, to strengthen the Coke Scholars community. I'm trying to raise $1,000 by the end of Giving Tuesday. Would you consider donating to help me reach my goal? I'm passionate about giving to support these outstanding Scholars, and I hope you'll support me and these amazing students by making a gift.
