The Cherish Every Child Inc (CEC) is a wonderful non-profit organization that helped me start off college in a positive way during my 1st semester of college. They’ve helped me with school supples clothes to make sure I get a headstart on my education and can just focus on school instead of other factors that may distract a college student from being attentive to school.” - M.D.

“I was fortunate enough to be a recipient of two scholarships from Cherish Every Child Inc (CEC Inc) for my first and second semesters at St. John’s University. Without the assistance I would have had an out of pocket expense that I wasn’t able to financially provide towards my freshman tuition. Both grants were my saving grace. “ - A.R.

Mekhi St. Hilaire - Scholarship Recipient

Dear Cherish Every Child Inc.

    Thank you for awarding my son, Mekhi, with the Cherish Every Child college scholarship. The opportunity to attend college can come with many stressors as to how to pay for college. But thanks to this scholarship it has helped us in covering the cost of his college tuition, which I as the parent would be responsible for. On behalf of Mekhi and myself, we would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making Mekhi's transition from high school to his freshman year of college a easy one. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. —

Sincerely,

Jacqueline Estupiñan (Mother)
