As a recipient of a Person County Education Foundation Scholarship, it is important to take the time to thank scholarship donors for their support. Receiving a thank-you letter allows a donor to view the impact their scholarship gift has in helping a deserving student realize his/her potential.
Thank you letters recognize the contributions of scholarship donors, as well as highlight the achievements of the recipients benefiting from scholarship support. The sharing of personal successes, career goals, and genuine gratitude is meaningful to supporters and significantly impacts future philanthropy. For these reasons, the PCEF occasionally highlights quotes from scholarship recipients to use in online and print publications shared with the community.
