MyeThyme is updating my "To Do" list

start a scholarship fund
A Scholarship Fund to Honor My Mother 2 years ago

I’ve been thinking about creating a scholarship fund in honor of my mother. It’s time to put my money where my mouth is. I have been saying that I want to give back to the community by doing more than just donating money or items to a charitable organization. I want to be a part of creating a legacy in my mother’s name. She took in complete strangers off the street to provide them with a place to stay. Once she even took in a woman with four children. My mother was one of the most giving people I know. I have already approached my brother and sisters about this. Now it is time to act.

Your mother sounds like she was a wonderful person and has left an enormous impact on your life. I thank God for people like your mother, and like you.

Thank you. I hope your scholarship is progressing well.

Seeking Scholarship Funds

Dear MyeThyme:

My daughter – Alexzandra Bardwell-Morgan is seeking to raise the money to attend Full Sail University in Orlando, FL to become a filmmaker in October ‘08. She completed one year at Long Island University in NY, and because she does not have the resources to continue her studies there and having found her passion to become a filmmaker, she has opted to do a 21 month Bachelor’s program at Full Sail. The total cost of the program is $72,000. We are seeking any and all scholarship opportunities that can help with this costs. I am a single parent who has had a severe financial setback as a result of the housing market and a health issue, unable to qualify for traditional loan financing. I am doing all I can to seek the money she needs to enter the program in October – she’s already been accepted. If you are so inclined to award her any amount it would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to contact me at the email address above. Thank you and God Bless you.

Cynthia Bardwell
