Savannah

Savannah’s father was run over by a forklift, and his leg had to be amputated. When asked why she applied for a KCOMI Scholarship:

1. I applied for kids chance hoping that i get the opportunity to attend my dream college. My family is struggling financially and they cannot afford to send me straight to a university. With the help of this scholarship I have higher hopes of accomplishing the education I dream of.
2. I graduated with the Class of 2017 at Lapeer High School.
3. I received a silver and gold medal from the Scholastics Art competition for two of my art pieces.
4. I volunteered at Mclaren Lapeer Region at the front desk as a patient escort and in the gift shop as a cashier. However I didn’t participate in any other extra curricular activities. I do enjoy painting and drawing though.
5. I plan on attending Mott Community College in order to complete my basics and then transfer to KCAD.
6. My only one and true mentor throughout high school was amy linton, my art teacher for 4 years.
7. I plan on starting off as a graphic designer and working my way up as a creative director.
8. Being approved for kids chance, means that i have the chance and opportunity to attend my dream college KCAD, to accomplish my hopes in becoming a creative director, and putting forth my hardest work in achieving my goals.
