Help Me Finish My Master's and Dietetic Internship

Donation protected
*English
Hello! Im Maria Urbina and I am an aspiring Registered Dietitian. I am pursuing my Master's in Clinical Nutrition and Dietetic Internship at the University of Memphis with intention of graduating in December 2024. When I got accepted into this competitive program I did not account for all the extra costs it came with being an International student, I was born and raised in Tegucigalpa, Honduras and have lived there my entire life. I have the privilege of being granted a scholarship that allowed me to go study and fulfill my dream. Due to different circumstances in my family and the brokenness of this world, paying for my tuition has become impossible. The Lord has been faithful in allowing me to pursue my dream of studying in the US. I come from a hard working middle class family in which both of my parents works to provide for our family of 4. The currency rate is 1 lempira= 25 US dollars, so college has been a big burden for my family.
In order to continue my education this semester I am exploring my options to be able to finish this big step in order to become a registered professional in the dietetics field. Being so close to graduation and having the uncertainty of whether I will be able to continue studying or not has been terrifying. However, God has provided in amazing ways. Either through other scholarships or the generosity of other people. It has never failed us and I am convinced that this is no exception.
If you are inclined to help there are three ways. The first one is by praying. I would appreciate your prayers for guidance and provision during this time. Secondly, it is by donating, no matter big or small, any donation would be such a big help and would keep opening doors. Thirdly is by sharing this to other people who might want to help in any way! Thank you so much in advance and from the bottom of my heart. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Hola! Soy María José , de Tegucigalpa, Honduras y estoy cursando mi maestría. Estudio en La Universidad de Memphis y mi maestría es Nutrición y Dietética. Tuve el honor de ser becada que me permitió irme a estudiar y cumplir my sueño. Por diferentes circunstancias en mi familia, pagar por mi universidad se ha vuelto imposible, ya que la beca no era completa. La incertidumbre de si podré seguir estudiando ha sido aterradora ya que cestería graduando en Diciembre 2024 si Dios lo permite. A pesar de todo, Dios ha proveído en maneras sorprendentes. Ya sea por medio de otras becas o la generosidad de otras personas. Nunca nos ha fallado y estoy convencida que esta no es la excepción. Para poder empezar este último semestre, y que no me retiren mis clases, necesitamos pagar el mes de enero. Cualquier donación ayuda muchísimo. Déjese usar por el Señor, y sea una bendición. Por favor contácteme si tiene preguntas. Gracias desde ya!
