🎓Congratulations to Viner Scholar Aaliyah! 🎉

We are so proud to celebrate Aaliyah, who just graduated Cum Laude from the University of Central Florida with a B.S.B.A. in Marketing and a B.A. in English, Creative Writing — two degrees, zero debt. ✨

Next up: Aaliyah joins Walmart as a Senior Analyst in their Merchandising Development Program. The future is bright!

In Aaliyah's own words:
"Being a Viner Scholar has meant the world to me. Beyond allowing me to graduate with two degrees debt-free, I've found the most amazing support system between the Viners family, volunteers, students, and especially my mentor. Now as I'm leaving the program as a student and into alum, I can only hope that I can give back as much as I received from this program in mentoring my own student!"

Today we pause to honor and remember the men and women who gave everything in service to our country. 🇺🇸 Their sacrifice will never be forgotten. Happy Memorial Day.

🎓✨ Congratulations, Viner Scholar Ben-Gina!

She just graduated Magna Cum Laude from Florida State University with a B.S. in Political Science and African American Studies, and this fall, she'll be making history as the first person in her family to attend law school in America, at Mercer School of Law! 🙌🏾⚖️

Born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and a proud first-generation college student, Ben-Gina has poured her heart into every step of this journey. She's taken on leadership roles, stayed committed to her community, and founded her own nonprofit, Dieu Bay, with a dream of building a school in Haiti. 🇭🇹❤️

In her own words:

"The Viner Scholarship means so much to me because it gave me the support I needed to focus on school and grow into who I am today... This scholarship helped me financially and opened doors for my future. I am truly grateful for the belief and support from Viners that helped shape my journey. Eda & Cliff Viner Foundation, I love you."

We are SO proud of you, Ben-Gina. The world hasn't seen anything yet. 🌟
