Massachusetts senior Verda Tetteh will be attending the ultra-prestigious Harvard University in the fall on a full scholarship. However, she knows how a community college can change someone’s life for the better, as her mother attended one at 39-years-old.
After winning an additional $40,000 scholarship, she elected to transfer it to a student attending community college.
“Knowing my mom went to community college, and how much that was helpful, I would be so very grateful if administration […] would consider giving the general excellence scholarship to someone who’s going to community college,” Verda said.
Her mother cheered on her daughter as she announced her decision before the students.
