Donate to Samantha’s Journey to Higher Education

Donation protected
I am a first-generation college student, and I am thrilled to share that I will be attending East Carolina University in Fall 2025—this is truly my dream school! The driving force behind my determination to pursue higher education is my family. My parents have worked incredibly hard, making countless sacrifices to give me the opportunity for a better future. I want to honor their struggles by achieving what they once thought might be impossible.

However, I face a significant financial challenge in making this dream a reality. As much as I am excited to begin this journey, I need financial help to attend school and cover the costs of tuition, housing, and other expenses. Your generous contribution toward my education will not only help me achieve my academic goals but will also bring us closer to the future I’ve always dreamed of for my family.

Thank you for supporting my journey and helping me create a brighter tomorrow for all of us.

These funds will be used for room & board, textbooks, meal plan, and classes.
