Phew, what a year so far! We couldn't be happier with the recipients who recently received scholarships through Brian's Foundation.
Out of the 37 scholarships we have awarded so far this year, 84% have plans to continue their education in a field where they can truly make a difference in their community or country.
Each and everyone of them are a bright spot in the lives of others. We thank them in advance for continuing to make a difference in people's lives around them.
