Congratulations to

Emily Morris

daughter of

Sandy Morris - Tampa Area Local (Member)

My name is Emily Morris, daughter of Sandy Morris, Sales Service Associate of the Zephyrhills Post Office and 30 year member of the American Postal Workers Union.  I am the proud winner of the $1,000.00 scholarship from the APW-ABA.  I graduated from Zephyrhills High School on May 27, 2011 with Cum Laude honors.  My plans for college are to attend Pasco Hernando Community College for the fall semester with the intention of obtaining an Associate of Arts Degree.  I am unsure of what my undergrad degree will be but I would like to minor in the Arts.

My community service work included volunteering at First United Methodist Church of Zphyrhills Florida helping with Sunday school classes, vacation bible school and youth group missions trips.  I keep busy by babysitting three rambunctious children several afternoons a week.

My hobbies include Anime Club, Japanese Cultural Society, reading and Art projects.  My painting, "Mother and Child" was selected to be in the 2011 Florida State Fair.  Another painting name "Ocean Valley" was selected for the Congressional Art Competition.  Although these paintings did not win an award, it was an honor to have my artwork selected to be in these competitions.

I want to thank you for this scholarship award and let you know how much I appreciated this gift.
