Huge congratulations to Jizelle Wright and Kylie Crabtree! 🥳🎉

We're excited to announce Jizelle and Kylie as this year’s IC Bus Scholarship recipients! Both of these incredible students are receiving $5,000 to help support their college education, and we couldn't think of two people more deserving.

Here’s a look at what’s ahead for both of them:

- Jizelle is on her way to becoming an attorney. She's passionate about standing up for others and making a real, lasting impact in her community. To her, this scholarship is way more than just financial support, it’s proof that people believe in her and where she's headed.

- Kylie is pursuing her dream of becoming a pediatric nurse. After discovering her passion through Medical Explorers and hands-on biomedical programs, she set her sights on bringing compassionate care to kids and their families during their toughest moments.

Jizelle and Kylie, we are so proud to support you and can't wait to watch everything you accomplish. Keep shining and chasing those big dreams! ❤️💙

A big thank you to IC Bus for continuing to invest in students through this scholarship program and helping make opportunities like this possible.
