The Grenada Education and Development Program (GRENED) never stopped showing up and showing out. Whether it was by organizing and executing the interesting Summer Science Projects, Public Speaking Sessions, Goal Setting Seminars or just simply having fund raisers, it was always an enjoyable time learning new things, growing as an individual and having mentors who truly cared about my personal, academic, financial and emotional well-being.

I I would just like to express my gratitude towards the entirety of GRENED for assistance with school, the informative sessions we had on Saturdays and also the fun activities we were engaged in, which all aided in my holistic development. Even throughout the pandemic you all continued to provide support and for that I thank you. As I pursue a career in electrical engineering, I am surely grateful for their generosity.

GRENED scholarship programme provided me with the necessary resources to make my educational journey comfortable, my family never had to worry about books, uniform, bags, etc, and that in itself is sufficient for any scholarship programme. The organization not only invested in my formal education but in my overall development as an individual. The doors were open to me on a daily basis, the computers were available for me to use, as a matter of fact, I did the majority of my student-based assessment, SBAs, at the then GRENED office in Telescope.
