Our Impact

Supporting students in need

When I won a K-State Proud SOA it was like a weight was lifted off my shoulders; it gave me peace of mind to finish my education so that I can continue to support my family. My education means the world to me, thank you for making it possible.

SOA Recipient

My SOA allowed me to breathe again. Instead of focusing on what I had lost, it showed me that someone else cared enough to help me through it.

SOA Recipient

I never realized how important my education was to me until it was in jeopardy. Receiving my SOA reminded me that finishing my degree was possible; someone was willing to make the investment in me, and that's what I needed to keep going.
