Hello, my name is Nihal and I had the honor of being a LFRF Scholarship winner in 2020. Since winning the scholarship, I have had the privilege of becoming a student at the College of William and Mary, being accepted into the honor’s program, starting my own nonprofit organization (Collegiate Companions), volunteering at a local free clinic, joining an amazing chemistry research lab, working on the university’s Honor Council, and working the VCU Pauley Heart Center to develop cardiac risk models in patients with cancer.

It is through the support of groups such as LFRF that I have found success in my endeavors. I am confident I can speak on behalf of the other beneficiaries when I say thank you for everything you do. I will certainly never forget the generosity of the foundation and hope for the continued success of the foundation.
