Hi, my name is Alanna, and I’m reaching out with hope and a dream.

Over the past month, life has thrown some challenges my way. My mom recently underwent back surgery, and while helping care for her, I’ve also been preparing to start my first year of college — something I’ve worked so hard for. Unfortunately, I’ve hit a financial roadblock: in order for me to get into college, I need to pay $4,200 in order to move in and begin classes this month.

This has been my dream for as long as I can remember. I’m passionate about criminology and psychology, and I plan to minor in sociology. My ultimate goal is to become a criminal profiler and work with the FBI. I have so many aspirations I’m determined to achieve — but right now, I can’t do it alone.

Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean the world to me. If you can’t donate, sharing my story would be just as helpful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to read this.

With gratitude,

Alanna
