Help me with my university tuition
Donation protected
Hello everyone! My name is Ugne and I am a young artist who loves crafts! My main interest is in jewellery, which is why I have this campaign set up.
Please help me get into the Jewellery and Silversmithing programme in Birmingham City University!
I'd like to tell you a bit more about my situation. For the last couple of years, I have been living in the UK independently and have been funding myself by selling my crafts online. I run a little Etsy store called Frozen Crafts - this store is my one and only job, and I couldn't be happier with it!
I've even sold at a few conventions!
I adore making things. But lately I have been feeling like I stopped moving forward.
I have learned everything I can learn here in my tiny room that I'm renting. I can't fit any professional equipment in here, nor do I have the skills to work with precious materials. I need training. I want to move forward. I want to follow my dream.
The problem is, I can't pay my tuition. Student Finance will only be able to cover my second year due to my conditions, therefore I need to get £6000 to pay for my first year as soon as possible.
I have an interview on February 11th, in which they will ask me to prove that I can fund myself. I can't miss this opportunity.
The goal is a bit higher due to fees that GoFundMe takes, but that can't be helped. They're hosting a big website after all.
Even if I don't make the goal, I will try my best to make the remaining amount of money myself. The last thing I want is to ask my family for money - they have their own troubles to worry about. I really don't want them worrying about me as well.
Every single donation, no matter how small, counts. I've helped fund some campaigns myself, but now I'm the one who has to turn to the community for help. Please help me reach my goal! ♥
Also, here are some of my creations if you are interested!:

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this!
