Zeta Dowdy: Hello. I'm Zeta Dowdy. I just wanted to take a minute today to say thank you to the SkillPointe Foundation. My Donohue SkillPointe scholarship has been tremendous in helping me find success in my cardiac sonography program. The financial weight that the scholarship lifted from me has really allowed me to focus on my classes, really getting the most out of my clinical rotations and even studying for and passing my board exams. I'm getting ready to graduate in a few weeks and I already have a couple of job offers. All of this would have been much more difficult and maybe even unattainable without the scholarship. So I really just have to extend my thanks. It is a big leg up for people like me who are pursuing a vocational track where, you know, it's gonna be a good career, you know, it's needed. You just have to get there, get those credentials, you can get into the workforce. And financial hurdles are a real thing. So this helped me a lot and now I am out here reaching these goals. So thank you again so much.
