The college was able to give out around 500 dollars to almost every student enrolled. This extra bit of motivation might be exactly what they needed to see.

“It makes me feel appreciated and heard because we haven’t really gotten any assistance initially but it finally feels like we are finally able to do what we are here for,” Hamilton said.

The money came from the federal department of education and can be used on anything from books to rent to food. Ashton Norton said when he found out he was both shocked and excited.
