PUPAA USA SCHOLAR THANK YOU LETTER - SERIES NO. 8

Dear PUPAA-USA Scholarship Committee,

I am sincerely grateful for the scholarship support that has been offered to me. Although the scholarship support is yet to be received, it already represents far more than financial assistance to me. It stands as a source of encouragement, hope, and motivation as I continue through one of the most challenging yet meaningful seasons of my life. Knowing that my potential has been recognized gives me the courage to keep moving forward, even on days when continuing feels difficult.

My academic journey has never been easy. There were moments when exhaustion weighed heavily on me, when self-doubt crept in, and when personal struggles made it hard to stay focused. There were nights filled with pressure and uncertainty, where I questioned whether I was strong enough to finish what I had started. During those times, giving up felt close, but I held on because I knew my journey was bigger than my fears.

What helped me survive those moments were the people I met along the way. I was blessed with friends who stayed beside me when I felt overwhelmed, who listened when I needed to be heard, and who reminded me of my purpose when I felt lost. Their presence taught me that success is not always about walking alone. Sometimes, it is about being supported by people who genuinely care and choose kindness even when life is heavy.

I am also deeply thankful for my blockmates, who became more than classmates to me. Instead of seeing one another as competitors, we chose to care, encourage, and support each other. We shared notes, comforted one another during stressful weeks, and celebrated every small victory together. That environment of unity and understanding made the academic journey lighter and more meaningful, and it strengthened my belief in collaboration, empathy, and shared growth.

Today, I am proud to share that I am now in my final semester. In just a few months, I will finally be graduating—a milestone that once felt so far away. I am hopeful to become a President’s Lister and possibly qualify for Magna Cum Laude, achievements that once felt impossible but now feel within reach because of the support, encouragement, and opportunities made possible through this scholarship.

Thank you for believing in me, especially during moments when the journey felt uncertain. Your generosity continues to help me move forward, not only academically but personally as well. The financial assistance will be used to support my daily allowance as I complete my studies, which is a great help to my family since I am raised by a single mother who has been doing everything she can to support us. Your support eases her burden and allows me to focus on finishing my education with determination and gratitude.

I carry with me the hope that someday I will be in a position to give back. As I move forward, I aspire to reach a point in my life where I can support others, whether by helping with daily needs or by assisting someone in continuing their education. In the same way that this opportunity has strengthened my determination and eased my journey, I hope to become a source of encouragement and assistance for individuals pursuing their dreams despite financial challenges. I will always carry this opportunity with me, inspired by the kindness you have shown, and I hope to one day extend the same support to others.

With sincere gratitude,

06/28/2026

Dear PUPAA-USA,

Good Day!

I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude to the Polytechnic University of the Philippines Alumni Association – USA (PUPAA-USA) for selecting me as one of your scholars for Academic Year 2025–2026.

Thank you for your generosity, trust, and belief in PUP students like me. Your support has been a great help, not only in easing my financial needs, but also in giving me encouragement and peace of mind to focus on my studies. Knowing that PUP alumni continue to support and uplift students inspires me to keep striving and doing my best.

During the first semester of AY 2025–2026, your scholarship motivated me to stay focused and determined in my academic and personal goals. I am grateful to share that I was included in the President’s List for the semester. I also passed the Civil Service Examination – Professional Level on my first take and completed my first 300 hours of practicum at the Philippine National Bank. These milestones became more meaningful knowing that I had the support and trust of PUPAA USA behind me.

More than financial assistance, this scholarship gave me hope and confidence. It reminded me that my efforts matter and that there are people who believe in my potential. I truly appreciate this opportunity, and I promise to continue working hard, staying grounded, and using this support wisely as I move closer to achieving my dreams.

Thank you once again for your kindness and continued support. May God bless the entire PUPAA-USA community with good health and success. I hope that one day, I can also give back and support future PUP students, just as you have helped me.

PUPAA USA SCHOLAR THANK YOU LETTER - SERIES NO. 5

25 JANUARY 2026

Dear PUPAA-USA,

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to PUPAA-USA for the continued support and assistance you have provided. Your generosity and commitment to helping students like me have been a great source of motivation and encouragement throughout my academic journey.

During the first semester, I was able to actively participate in our film project, where I served as the script continuity. This role helped me develop my attention to detail, responsibility, and collaboration skills within a production team. In addition, I was also given the opportunity to work as a photographer, which allowed me to further explore my creativity and enhance my technical skills in visual storytelling.

These experiences would not have been possible without the support and opportunities made available through your assistance. I am deeply thankful for the trust and confidence you have shown in me, and I am committed to continuously improving both academically and creatively.

Thank you once again for your unwavering support. I truly appreciate everything that PUPAA-USA does for students like me.

Warm regards,
