Hi friends and family,

Most of you know that last year I attended Gordon College to study Communication Arts. This year, due to a combination of the unexpected financial challenges that my family has faced and the discontinuation of the Federal Perkins Loan, it doesn't look like I can go back. At Gordon, I helped friends start small businesses, participated in the Social Venture Challenge, was in an entrepreneurial fellows program that sent me and the rest of my cohort to San Francisco to meet people at companies like Tesla, Facebook, Apple, and WeWork, and got to meet so many amazing people at Gordon (friends, business people, and mentors). My goal is to help small business owners take off. I believe that I can best accomplish that by finishing my college education at Gordon. I'm asking for YOUR help. Since I knew that money would be a problem, I was encouraged to take credits in high school, leaving me with only a year and a half left to complete at age 18! This is the exact amount that I need for this year: $19,974.

If only 100 of you donated $200, that would more than cover what I need to go back to school. However, I would be super appreciative of any sized donation! School starts in August but I have to identify my payment plan on July 15th. If I get less then $15,000 by the time July 15th swings around, then I will ask everyone who donated to access the GoFundMe Guarantee to receive their money back. (Right now, that would be only about 48 more $200 donations) Thank you SO much for your help as I pursue my dream to help small businesses succeed!!
