The scholarship recipients expressed profound gratitude upon
being named the recipients of the 2024 Leap Live and Learn
Scholarship. Reflecting on the significance of the scholarship, one
winner shared, "Leap has played a crucial part in my educational
journey. With no one close to help with signing my lease, I thought
I was out of luck. I became aware that none of the apartments
accepted college students without a guarantor. Luckily, my
apartment was a part of Leap's guarantor assistance program and
things brightened up. Going back to grad school wouldn't have been
possible without Leap's help." (Senior, Georgia Southern University), underscoring the
transformative impact of financial support on their academic
journey.
"We extend our heartfelt congratulations to each of the winners
for their remarkable dedication to their academic pursuits," said
Rory O'Connell, CEO of Leap.
