My name is Darius, and I’m the first in my field from my community, just one year into my graduate program. I’ve worked hard to get here — long nights studying, balancing responsibilities, and doing everything right to stay on track toward my degree.

But last week, I got devastating news: because of new laws in this country, my scholarship funding has been revoked. I have two semesters left, and school starts in just 7 days. Without $12,000, I cannot continue — and if I’m forced to stop now, I’ll have to restart my program from the very beginning. Years of work and sacrifice could be lost.

I’m asking for your help to bridge this gap so I can finish what I started. Any amount helps — whether it’s $5, $50, or just sharing this link with your network. If 12,000 people gave just $1, this goal would be met.

Your support means the difference between walking across that stage or walking away empty-handed. Please help me make it to graduation.thank you
