Family plays an integral role in shaping our future. Our family contribute and support us in every step of our life. Having a family is a blessing. Whether parents, grandparents or siblings, each member of our family helps us to become what we are today. They are our first teachers and influencers, and from them, we learn how to experience and see the world. David E. Gordon knows the importance of having family and that is why it has made available an amazing program called “The Nuclear Family Scholarship” for 2021. Through this program, he wants to encourage students to share their story of how a member of their immediate family has shaped them into the person they are today. Any current high school senior, a college student and graduate student can send their application.
Family means someone who stands by your side in both your good and bad times and is always there for you no matter what the situation is. Family is our spine bone and without a family, a person’s life can be harder that cannot be imagined. We often take our family for granted despite knowing the importance of it in our lives. Keeping all these facts in mind, David E. Gordon has brought this program. He aims to use this program as an opportunity to get students to think about how their family has shaped them into the person they are today. He is hoping that this scholarship will assist students, who are having life-defining experiences in college, to reflect on their past relationships so that they may use that reflection to continue shaping themselves into strong-minded young adults.
