2021 Maryland Scholarship Recipient – Sophia Villagomez
Hi Mr. Herzberg,
Thank you so so so much!! This is so exciting, I am so honored to have won this incredible award; not only will it aid me financially, but it truly means so much to be able to honor Eric and all that he stood for.
I can’t wait to continue working through God and becoming heavily involved in my new community at…. the University of Maryland! I will be majoring in biology with a minor in Spanish on the pre-dental track this upcoming fall. I plan to apply to “Terps For Change,” a student organization focused on partnering with local organizations in need. Through this program I hope to work at Casa Mi Espacio and utilize my Spanish speaking abilities to mentor and assist ESOL elementary school students with anything from homework, to building new relationships. I will definitely update you throughout the school year as I join other community efforts, as I look forward to partaking in many different activities at UMD.
Again, a huge huge thank you to you and your family, I am so so grateful for this scholarship award:) God Bless!
Hi Sophia – thank you for responding back. You deserve it. I am sure you have a very bright future ahead of you!
Eric Herzberg
