College Fund

My name is Anna Karcher. I am a part of a family of six and the second oldest. I am currently trying to raise money to pay the remaining fees of my college tuition. Being in a large family, with three of us in college, it's hard to cover all the costs but we get by. At the end of my Freshman year in college, it seemed as though we had everything covered except a small remaining balance that was easily payable. Unfortunately, two weeks into the school year, my university suddenly decided that I was no longer qualified, and took away $10,000 out of grants that were going toward my education. Now, instead of owing a few hundred dollars, I now have to pay a couple thousand dollars. My family and I have tried applying for additional loans to help cover the costs, but we keep getting denied. The good news, is that the university is allowing me to finish the fall semester even if we don’t pay them right away. However, I cannot continue my education there after this semester, until all the debt has been paid. Our current goal is to raise at least $6,000 to cover this fall semester and the overall goal is to raise $12,000 for both semesters. If even one of these goals are reached, I will be able to finish this school year off and it would give us more time to find a more substantial source of income. It would mean the world to me to be able to stay at this university and live in the dorms. I've made friendships that are just beginning to grow and I fear that if I don’t raise this money in time, I'd lose the progress I’ve made with my new friends as well as with my education. I would be eternally grateful if you would contribute. I'm not asking for the full $12,000, but any contribution would be tremendously appreciated.
