CSF Student Thank You Letters
June 3rd, 2022
We've received reports from our CSF schools detailing many of the incredible university our now-alumni Scholars will be attending in the Fall.
JEREDIAH
My name is Jerediah and I am currently sixteen years old enrolled at Central Catholic High School as a junior. Every year I have had the opportunity to thank the donors and this is a letter that I have a pleasure in writing. Because of your beautiful hearts, so generous and kind, I can succeed in my high school career, not only as a Central Catholic student, but as a CSF Scholar.
At Central I have been given many opportunities in countless aspects. One achievement that I am particularly proud of is the medal I received my sophomore year in my religious studies. Last year was a most difficult year, as we all know, and the only way we are ever going to get through this pandemic is our Lord, our God.Receiving that medal was a sign to me, from him,that he is always watching and has my back.
If I am being completely honest, I have always dreamed of being a surgeon (specifically in the field of cardio thoracic surgery). I am working diligently to achieve this goal but such big dreams seem so far away. Because of this, I have settled for the idea of becoming a nurse as my mother is.My biggest dream of all is to help people in any way I medically can. Through either profession I will be able to achieve this goal.
All in all, I would like to close this letter by reiterating my gratitude for your donations and contribution to my scholarship that allows me to attend such an amazing school at Central Catholic. I hope you and your family are staying safe during these times.
Sincerely,
Jerediah

Thank you for your investment in my education at Central Catholic. Central Catholic has provided me with everything I need to succeed in life, and I will make my family proud. I plan to continue my hard work in the next chapter of my life.As someone who grew up in Lawrence, the generous donations you have given me are too much for me to ever fully show you how much I appreciate it.
