Hi, my name is Taniyah McNeil, and I am 17 years old. I am an entrepreneur, a proud honor roll student, and I have consistently maintained Principal’s Honor Roll at my school.

Because of my academic dedication and leadership, I was selected to attend the National Youth Leadership Forum for Medicine & Healthcare, hosted at Yale University.

When I received this opportunity, I felt both honored and excited. This program is designed for students who are serious about pursuing careers in medicine and healthcare. It will allow me to live on a college campus, participate in hands-on medical simulations, learn directly from healthcare professionals, gain mentorship, and earn academic credits.

My goal is to build a career in healthcare where I can serve, lead, and make a meaningful impact in people’s lives. As a young entrepreneur, I already understand the value of discipline, commitment, and investing in growth. This experience would expand my leadership skills and give me early exposure to the medical field at a national level.

The full tuition for the program is $4,499, which covers campus housing, travel, books, mentorship, and program credits. A $500 deposit is required to secure my spot, and it will be applied toward the total tuition cost.

I am asking for your support to help me take this next step toward my future. Any contribution, no matter the amount, will help me move closer to this opportunity. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser would mean just as much.

Thank you for believing in me, supporting my goals, and helping me continue striving for excellence.

With Gratitude,

Taniyah McNeil
