" Supporting MVC is my way of giving back to the college that helped prepare me for both my professional career and life’s future endeavors." M Supporting MVC is my way of giving back to the college that helped prepare me for both my professional career and life’s future endeavors. I have always been grateful for the education I received at Valley from the caring professors who were fully engaged in teaching the content of study, as well as the application of learning. I started out as a student in the American Humanics program which prepared students for careers in youth and human services. Although my major shifted to Mathematics, the foundation within the Humanics program, combined with my years of service in the Boy Scouts of America, created my desire to help pave the way for future generations to have the same opportunity afforded to me. Supporting a college that is so committed to personalized student success,makes giving back all the more rewarding. To quote Mother Teresa, “We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love”.
