Clare Kinsella

I have many goals for myself. I want to be a doctor, to travel, and to work for disaster relief. These goals require a lot of education, which has proven and will continue to prove very difficult and rewarding at the same time. I believe that the time and resources I put in will be worth the abilities they give me to give back to society in important ways, such as providing health and care to those who need it most. Receiving a 2019 VAW / VRC merit scholarship means that I can more securely pursue the means to reaching my goals.

This scholarship is a helpful step towards making the impact that I want to make on the world. I see my education as an investment toward my future, and receiving this scholarship means helping me build that future.
