“I wanted to share with you my first graduate school admission letter, I got into UCLA’s Master’s in Social Work program! I honestly could not have done it without Raise the Barr’s support. The laptop I bought with the scholarship was a big blessing because everything that I do—all my homework, work assignments, graduate school applications, etc. are all through my laptop. Thank you for making this happen.”
