Hi! I am MJ (most of you know me as Miranda Joyce!)! I am in my last semester of a Bachelors of Science in Public Health! I cannot walk the stage in December or receive my diploma until I pay off $3000 I still owe for my Summer semester. I ran out of Pell Grant funding during Spring semester, my CalGrant covered my Fall 2026 Semester, but I still owe this pesky amount to fully pay off my college degree!!

I work full time and still had to max out my credit cards over the summer to be able to afford my basic bills like rent and electricity. My credit is shot so I was denied a personal loan. I am leaning on my community to help me out. Even though I still get to finish my classes, I really want to be able to walk with my cohort and get that silly piece of paper I have worked so hard for!!!

from the bottom of my heart, I am grateful for any amount to help me reach my goal!
