Help With Class Needed For Degree

Donation protected
Hello and thank you for taking the time to read about my campaign. I'm in my final year of community college. It's been a long time coming. I've dealt with some set backs. My mental health went 360, my father passed away and within months of that happening, my car was stolen from the parking lot while I was in class. I eventually got my car back but it needed repair due to the damage the thieves caused. Despite all that, I've continued my education and I'm set to graduate May 2018 with an Associate's degree in Early Childhood Education and will begin my bachelor's soon after where I'll be majoring in Early Childhood Education with the focus of Trauma Studies. For those who might not be aware of what Trauma Studies is, it prepare students with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to help guide and support children facing tremendous strain at a highly impressionable time in their lives. This is very important to be as I grew up around a lot of trauma and I didn't have an advocate in my corner so now as a an adult and a student, I want to learn about different issues that affect young children and I want to be their advocate. What is getting in my way is my financial aid will not cover one class that I need to transfer. I've come too far to be stopped by not taking this class. I want to achieve my goals and to graduating on time.
