Thank you note from 2016 Scholarship Awardee

 Dear Mr. Bell,

I wanted to email to thank you and the foundation for being a recipient of the foundation scholarship this past year. I have been meaning to email you sooner but I have been busy all summer with an internship I took with Arbor Homes in Indianapolis.

I just wanted to check in and say how thankful I was to be not only considered but awarded the scholarship. If there is ever anything you need or have any more opportunities to grow in the business community please feel free to reach out.

I will be finishing up my Senior year at the University of Florida this coming academic year and will be pursuing an MBA sometime in the future soon after.

Please extend my gratitude to everyone with the foundation and please feel free to call, text or email at any time.

Thank You Very Much,

Brendan Healy
