NEWS FROM THE HOME OFFICE
Dear GBU Life ...
Thank you for selecting me as one of the recipients for the GBU Foundation Grant. This will be very helpful as I start my sophomore year as a civil engineering major attending Geneva College.
Dylan Cannon West Mifflin, PA
Words can’t express how grateful I am for being chosen as a scholarship recipient! Thank you so much! Because of your generosity, I can concentrate more on my studies and not worry about my financial situation. I think GBU is great! Thanks again!

I am sincerely honored and grateful to have been selected as recipient of the GBU Foundation Scholarship for the 2020-2021 academic year. Thank you for your generosity and financial support towards my graduate degree.
As a second-year graduate student at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, I plan to graduate in the spring of 2021 with a Master’s Degree in Speech Language Pathology. I am currently participating in a full-time pediatric outpatient internship in addition to my course work. With your support and generosity, I am one step closer to obtaining my goal.
Receiving the GBU Foundation Scholarship for the 2020-2021 academic year has decreased my financial burden and has enabled me to focus more on my education, at my internship and my education in the classroom for my future career. Your generosity has emphasized the importance of assisting others. As a future speech pathologist, my goal is to assist, serve and provide therapy that will enhance the lives of my clients. The example GBU has delivered to help one succeed is an attribute that I hope to provide to my clients in the future. Thank you again for your generous support and example.

My name is Katherine Koch and I was fortunate enough to be a GBU undergraduate scholarship recipient this year! Thank you so much for the award. This award will help me continue my studies towards a BFA in Dance on a pre-med track at the University of Hawaii. I am proud to be a GBU member, and I hope to continue the GBU spirit of making a difference in our communities.
