Writing Thank-You Letters
Once you're notified that you've received a scholarship, it's important to write the donor a thank you note to show your appreciation.
“For me, coming to Kirkwood was the easiest and best next step. It’s down the road from where I went to high school and I’m able to live at home to save money.”
