I could see my finish line. My scholarships eliminated the financial fear that held me back for years. All I had to do was stay the course and do the work. I\u2019ve had the opportunity to dream with my eyes open because I was awarded scholarships at Wilmington University. Now, I\u2019m happy to give back and help others to take the same steps by fully supporting and participating in the Spirit Stride Virtual 5K.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-image3005_cc5439-58 .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image3005_cc5439-58\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"563\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.wilmu.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/WilmU_5k.jpg\" alt=\"5k participants smiling and waving\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-3009\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.wilmu.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/WilmU_5k.jpg 563w, https:\/\/blog.wilmu.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/WilmU_5k-250x156.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 563px) 100vw, 563px\" \/><figcaption>Participants from Wilmu&#8217;s 2015 Homecoming 5k<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nina Thomas<\/strong> earned a bachelor\u2019s degree in 2017 and is now a successful entrepreneur who owns and operates United and Free Photography, which specializes in weddings, engagements and events. \u201cWilmington University transformed my life,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThanks to my scholarships, WilmU gave me the desire to keep making forward progress.
