Hi! My name is Mind & I’m a teenage girl from Thailand. My parents work hard and saved money so that I could get an American education. But school here is very expensive if you’re not an American citizen!

My family have supported me through two years of school, but they’ve run out of their savings.There are no scholarships to help foreign students study in American secondary schools and if I can’t raise money for my final year’s tuition, I won’t be able to graduate high school.

Although Minnesota is very different from Thailand & I miss my family & friends, I want to graduate from school in America! I am an honor roll student & a member of the National Honor Society, & I work very hard. Please help me stay in school!
