Kaci Williams is now a finalist in a national scholarship program, and itâs all thanks to TikTok, a social media app.
âBelieve it or not, my mom sent it (the scholarship) to me on TikTok,â Williams said. âShe spent a lot of time looking for scholarships for me and it popped up for her.â
The daughter of Chuck and Angela Williams, Kaci said she didnât âreally think I had a shot because itâs a national scholarship.â The Jack Kent Cooke Foundationâs Cooke College Scholarship is selected on students with financial needs and âexceptional academic ability,â according to the foundationâs website.
