Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted individuals,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to share my story and seek your support in my educational journey. My name is Lemmi Bekele. I was born in Baale and grew up in Arsi and moved to Addis Ababa. I am a passionate student from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, currently pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and Management in the beautiful city of Venice, Italy. Your support is vital as I face the challenges of meeting the substantial cost of my education, which amounts to approximately 1200€, and the impact of a language barrier on securing employment in Italy.
The Journey from Ethiopia to Italy:
My journey began with a burning desire for knowledge and a deep yearning to explore the world beyond the borders of my home country. Leaving behind my family, friends, and the comforts of home, I embarked on an adventure to Italy, a land known for its rich history and renowned educational opportunities. Italy, and in particular the city of Venice, captured my heart with its vibrant culture and the promise of academic growth and personal development.
The Financial Challenge:
Living in Venice comes with a significant financial burden. Despite my relentless pursuit of scholarships and financial aid, meeting the cost of my education remains a monumental challenge. The required school payment amounts to approximately 1200€, a substantial sum for me as a student from a humble background. The funds raised through this initiative will directly contribute to bridging the financial gap and ensuring that my educational journey can continue uninterrupted. And if I couldn't manage to find this amount to school and pay by the December 8 I will be illegal to stay in the country. Because I will be illegal to stay there without a student permit.
The Language Barrier and Employment Challenges:
Throughout my time in Italy, I have encountered significant difficulties due to the language barrier. Upon arrival, I faced the daunting task of learning a new language while simultaneously adjusting to the demands of my coursework. As a result, my limited proficiency in the Italian language has impacted my ability to secure employment to support my educational and living expenses.
Italy's strict regulations and language requirements for working as an international student have left me unable to find employment opportunities to meet my financial needs. This added challenge has made it even more challenging for me to cover the cost of living, including rent, food, and other essential expenses.
The Need for Support:
It is with humility and a genuine pursuit of my dreams that I reach out to you today. Your support, whether through a financial contribution or by sharing this fundraiser with your network, will provide the crucial support I need to overcome these financial obstacles. The funds raised will enable me to continue my education with peace of mind, knowing that I have your support in alleviating the financial burden.
With your generous support, I will be able to focus entirely on my studies, actively participate in extracurricular activities, and engage with my peers, thereby maximizing my educational experience and personal growth.
Conclusion:
In closing, I would like to express my deepest gratitude for taking the time to read my story and learn about my aspirations. Your support, whether in the form of a donation or by sharing this fundraiser, will make a profound impact on my journey towards educational success in Italy. Together, let us empower dreams, bridge financial gaps, and foster a spirit of opportunity and achievement.
Thank you for believing in me and for your unwavering support. May your kindness and generosity return to you tenfold.
With heartfelt thanks
