Grad school fund!

Hi, y'all! It's Arnelle, here asking y'all to open your purses, wallets, and apple pay to support me as I start grad school next week. I was accepted this morning (August 17th)! The program starts on August 28th.

I'm raising money for tuition/fees, a new laptop, and small expenses to get me started for the school year. I'm applying for financial aid now, but it may take some time to be processed, and I'd love to be able to put down the first payment in the tuition payment plan they offer and register for my classes on time and stress-free with a strong foundation of resources. If I make my goal and get my financial aid earlier than expected, the money raised here will be used towards bills as well as tech, school supplies, and tuition for the next semester/year.

My birthday is 8/20, and I'd love for you to celebrate by dropping something in the collection plate.

All jokes aside, it would mean a lot to me if you supported this huge step on my journey. Thanks so much!
