These are the stories of students whose lives are being holistically transformed by the faithful generosity of you, our Scholars Community.
Derick’s Story
A Family Transformed
Sarah’s Story
Sarah's family couldn't afford to send her to school. But one opportunity changed the direction of her life.
Through AsOne, Sarah was able to receive a quality, Christ-centered education—and along the way, she gave her life to Christ and found new hope for her future.
“Since I joined AsOne, I started getting hope and a clear vision for my future. My relationship with Jesus has grown because I accepted Him as my personal Savior.”
And the impact didn't stop with Sarah.
Today, two of her brothers are employed by AsOne—one serving as a nurse at Healing Grace Medical Center and the other as a teacher at AsOne High School.
What began with the opportunity for one student to go to school is now impacting an entire family—and shaping what Sarah believes is possible for the next generation.
“I hope the next generation of my family will know that education is key and that hope can be restored by God, just as my life changed when I joined AsOne.”
This is the ripple effect of opportunity: a life transformed by education and faith in Christ, a family strengthened, and hope passed on to the next generation.
Thank you for making stories like Sarah's possible.
