2023 AWARDS
Congratulations to the 23 recipients of the 2023 Soaring For C! Character Scholarship Award from York High School
Transcript and recipient names below:
This year is unique in that this is Cessna’s graduating class…her friends and classmates. We wanted to be able to make as big of an impact as we could…and so it was decided for her class, the Class of 2023, there would be 23 recipients of the Soaring For C! Character Scholarship Award at York High School.
In the length of about 15 months that Soaring For C! has been a non-profit, we have been overwhelmed by the generous support and donations made by our local community, our state community, and all of our friends across the United States and other countries. We are still continuing to evolve in making a difference in the lives of others and will always welcome your ideas and support moving forward.
On February 1 of this year, we held a fundraiser on Cessna’s 2nd Angelversary that was specifically for this scholarship and from that fundraiser we are able to provide for four of these scholarships. The remaining scholarship funding for this year is coming directly from Cessna’s college fund.
Before we reveal the recipients, I would like to leave Cessna’s class with a few short statements:
1. Be kind. Be kind to others and especially to yourself.
2. Grace. Be able to forgive others. Be able to forgive yourself.
3. Thoughts are not facts. Don’t believe everything You think.
Thank you for being a part of Cessna’s life while she was here on earth and thank you for continuing to let her be a part of your life even now. We are thankful for all of you.
Cessna, in coinciding with her values, would be in agreement of the recipients of this year’s award.
