Note of Thanks for the COVID Gap Scholarship

Three students in our school received the COVID scholarship. One girl in the 4th grade, both parents lost their jobs because of COVID-19  and they did not have the funds to continue with Christian Education. The church and several sponsors are helping but more financial help was needed. So the COVID scholarship was a great help and answer to prayer. 

Then we had two students, brother and sister who have attended our school since the first grade. The boy is in the 8th grade and his sister in the 6th grade. Their mother is a single parent. Her hours at work were cut way back because of COVID-19. She was stressing out about her children’s education since they’ve been here for the last 8 years. The church and sponsors are helping the family but more financial help was needed. So COVID-19 was a blessing sent from above. Both families are very grateful to the Brace Foundation.

Give THANKS to the Lord, He is good; His love endures forever.
When I was in a difficult place, I cried to the Lord; He brought me to a spacious place!
Psalm 118:1&5
