The Citadel Foundation hosted the annual Cadet Letter Writing sessions over the last couple weeks giving scholarship recipients the opportunity to thank their donors with a handwritten note.

These notes are a reminder that giving goes far beyond financial support—it creates personal connections and a lasting impact on the lives of these cadets. We're excited to say over 1,000 thank-you notes were sent out this year!
