Dear Friends of Must!,

As we approach the Thanksgiving Holiday, we want to pause and express our deepest gratitude to our incredible supporters who have been a driving force behind our work at Must! Charities.

Throughout this year, we've seen the remarkable impact of your generosity in the lives of countless individuals and families within our community. Your kindness has allowed us to provide food, shelter, education, healthcare, and hope to those in need. You've been the catalyst for change and the reason we've been able to continue our mission to make our world a better place.

As we focus on gratitude this month, we want to highlight one of our projects – The Juan Nevarez Memorial Scholarship Fund: A Vineyard Team Initiative. This scholarship supports vineyard and winery workers' children with higher education scholarships. This project is much more than a scholarship; the content below explains why. We will continue to invest in this project over the next few years, and we hope you will join us as we further the Scholarship Fund and create opportunities for higher education for years and years to come.

Warm Regards,

Becky

Part of our investment with the Vineyard Team was to fund a Scholarship Administrator and Mentor. With over 20 years of experience helping students and families access financial aid and scholarship programs, Alex fits right in as the Administrator and Mentor of the Juan Nevarez Memorial Scholarship. His support of first-generation students helps them graduate and move seamlessly into the workforce.

With Alex's guidance, several students have sought advice on budgeting, financial aid, and resume building.
