Meet Christina Ford, USA Scholarship winner
Ms. Christina Ford received the Union Services Access Scholarship to further her education. A senior at Commonwealth Connections Academy, Christina is an ambitious student who has many goals for the future. She aspires to become an interior designer and eventually obtain her master’s degree. She hopes to have a successful career focused on giving back to family, friends and those in need. She is enrolled at Philadelphia University for the fall 2015 semester.
Christina attributes much of her success from her grandmother’s and father’s support. Her father is George Ford, Jr., a union member of CWA Local 13000.
“Since I was a small child, my father has always motivated me and helped me keep my focus on school,” she wrote in her essay. “Even to this day, my father has helped me to remain determined about wanting to be on top/be more than the best that I can be.”
