Help Me Win a Scholarship!

My name is Jessica Garel and I’m proud to be a student at the Community College of Aurora and to serve as the President of the Phi Theta Kappa National Honors Society, Alpha Pi Pi Chapter. PTK has been a huge part of my college experience. It has helped me grow as a leader, support fellow students, and build a more connected and engaged campus community.

I’m currently studying Human Resources and Business Management and plan to transfer to MSU Denver next fall to continue my education. This year, I’m competing for a CCA Foundation scholarship, and if I win, I will donate the entire $1,000 scholarship to my Student Led Organization, PTK, to support chapter projects, events, and member development opportunities.

To win, I need to get the highest number of individual donors by midnight on December 9th, not the highest dollar amount. A minimum gift of five dollars counts as one donor, so anything above that is encouraged but completely optional. Your donation helps me in the competition, supports PTK, and strengthens the CCA Foundation’s mission. Last year, the Foundation awarded over $910,000 in scholarships to students like me, and your contribution helps keep that momentum going.

Every donor truly makes a difference. Thank you for supporting my leadership, my chapter, and CCA students working hard to reach their goals.
