I want to apply
Good day!
I am Danica Nicole B. Gerozaga from Barangay La Paz. I recently graduated from Ayala National High School and will be an incoming first-year college student at Zamboanga Peninsula Polytechnic State University.
I would like to apply for this scholarship because I come from a financially challenged family. We are a family of six, and our only source of income is my father, Rocky Gerozaga, who works as a habal-habal driver. My mother, Faith Gerozaga, is a housewife who takes care of our family.
Supporting the education of four children is a great challenge for my parents. I am the eldest and will be entering college, while my two younger siblings are in high school and our youngest sibling is in elementary school. Because of our financial situation, pursuing higher education has become difficult for us.
If I am fortunate enough to be granted this scholarship, it will greatly help me with my educational expenses, including enrollment and other school-related needs. It will also lessen the financial burden on my parents and allow them to continue supporting the education of my siblings.
I assure you that I will use this opportunity and any financial assistance responsibly and wisely. I am determined to work hard in my studies and make the most of this chance to achieve my dreams and help my family in the future.
Thank you very much for your kindness and consideration. May God bless you abundantly.
Respectfully,
Danica Nicole B. Gerozaga
