The Phenomenal Woman Scholarship is more than a scholarship. It is a sisterhood and a safe place for those to discuss challenges they may have during their college journey. Unfourtanelty everyone does not have a strong support system that can uplift them when they are down, or have someone that calls and ask how their classes are going, or is even interested in their career goals. Having strong consistent emotional support during college is crucial and plays a big role in a college student's success.

The Phenomenal Woman Scholarship is for the black women that are extraordinary and goes above & beyond to reach their goals. It is for the women that live life by the principle of giving up is never an option. It is for women that have fire in their eyes & strive to be the best they can be every day. As a phenomenal woman no matter how hard things got, I kept going. Not only did I keep going but I did it with a smile on my face. One day at a time, you will get to where you want to be. No matter how challenging life becomes, just keep going. Take the time to find your purpose, own your purpose, and then walk within your purpose.
