Hi,
My name is Nicole Demczuk and I attend The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. I am 20 years old and have to ask for a favor from all of you. 
My roommate for three years now, Louisa Zheng, has recently given me some unfortunate news. Her father will be taken off life support and will pass away. 
My roommate is the same age as myself and has three other siblings. Her family is a large and caring family whom I've grown to love. Louisa puts her family above all else and is a independent woman to the core. She studies architecture at the School of the Art Institute and is president of a group that is apart of the NOMA (National Organization of Minority Architects). As a young Asian-American woman she feels the need to strive for success and leadership. 
She has always been a religious friend of mine, attending many church youth groups and being Vice President of one. She puts her heart and soul into every task she does. 
I want to start a GoFundMe page in order to help out her family and mostly her mom who will now be the head of the household and will have to take care fo the children. She can not financially do that all by herself and I want to be able to help them out. College is expensive and having a burden such as debt or not being financially stable to get an educaton to pursue your dream is a crime. 
I want to be able to reach $2,000 so that they can pay off the medical bills that have pilled up and so Louisa and her younger sister wont have to worry too much about their education, which they deserve. 
This family has been through enough and I want to be able to do something and give back to them just as much as they have given me. 
So please find it in your heart to spare just possibly 5 dollars or even a dollar. Or even a  prayer. Anything helps them out and I mean anything. I thank you again for listening and taking the time to read this. 

Thanks,
Nicole (Just a friend and a roommate)
