Dear esteemed members of FASFAA,

I believe that together, we can make a meaningful impact on the lives of students and families across the nation by ensuring that financial aid remains accessible and equitable for all who seek to pursue higher education.
I humbly ask for your support and vote in the upcoming election. Together, let us work towards a future where every student has the opportunity to achieve their academic dreams, regardless of financial circumstances.
