"When I heard that I was awarded the MBM scholarship, I was so surprised followed by immense gratitude. The financial burden of room and board fees has been very stressful for my family, and this scholarship is an absolute blessing. It will make a tremendous difference in my college journey, and I am sincerely grateful for MBM's support. Thank you so much Motivated by Music!"
