Hi everyone,

My name is Daija Brady, and I’m proud to be graduating from law school this May. In just a few months, I’ll be sitting for the bar exam on July 29–30—two full days, six hours each, of the most important exam of my life.

I’ve worked incredibly hard to get to this point. I’ve spent the last three years focused entirely on becoming the kind of attorney my community can be proud of—balancing school, internships, leadership, and service without the ability to work a full-time job. I’ve taken on significant student loan debt and have no savings to fall back on.

For the next two months, I won’t be able to work while preparing full-time for the bar. Balancing a job and bar prep would be extremely difficult because passing this exam requires everything I have.

That’s why I’m asking for your help! I’m raising funds to cover essential living expenses like rent, car insurance, groceries, and study-related costs during this critical period. The amount I’m asking for isn’t extra—it’s the bare minimum I need to stay afloat and focused.

If you know me, you know I don’t take asking for help lightly. If you don’t know me, let me tell you why I believe I’m worth supporting:

I’ve put in the work, I’ve served my community, and now I just need a little help to reach the finish line. If you’re able to give—whether it’s $5 or more—your support would mean the world. And if you can’t give right now, simply sharing this page is a huge help too.

Thank you for believing in me and investing in my future. I promise, I won’t waste it.

With love and gratitude,

Daija Brady
