Help Juhee Get to Bennington – Full Ride, But Not Fully Covered
"Mediocrity was never an option."
That’s Juhee Kim in five words.
She fought for—and won—a Bennington Presidential Scholarship, a full-tuition award, because she doesn’t know how to give less than everything.
Late nights, impossible deadlines, setbacks that would’ve crushed most people—she turned them all into fuel. Now, Bennington’s giving her the chance to prove what we’ve always known: this girl is going to change things.
But here’s the catch: "Full ride" doesn’t mean everything’s covered.
The Reality:
Juhee still needs $7,500 USD for her first year to handle what the scholarship doesn’t:
- $2,000 – Health insurance (required by the school)
- $3,500 – Books, travel, and basic living costs
- $2,000 – Taxes on her scholarship (yes, that’s a thing)
Over four years? That gap becomes $30,000 USD. We’ve done everything we can, but we can’t close it alone.
Why This Matters:
This isn’t just about money. It’s about making sure Juhee can:
- Focus on her work instead of stressing over bills.
- Say "yes" to opportunities—research, internships, conferences—without worrying how to afford them.
- Actually enjoy this journey, instead of just surviving it.
How Juhee Will Thank You:
- Handwritten notes (she insists—no shortcuts).
- Updates from campus (so you can see your impact).
- A promise: She’ll make this investment count.
We Need You:
If you’ve ever rooted for the kid who outworks everyone, the one who turns "impossible" into "watch me"—this is your chance to back that fire.
Every dollar gets her closer. Every share spreads the word.
Let’s get Juhee to Bennington—ready, supported, and unstoppable!
