EDIT: Thank you to everyone who's donated to support Israa. Through this and through other channels, I believe we have now raised enough money to see her through the fall semester, so I have turned off donations for this.

Israa Thiab is my Ph.D. student at RIT studying circular economy entrepreneurship and how to help people start their own circular economy businesses. She's been doing a great job and she's almost finished, but her funding has been cut off. She has one semester left to go in order to finish her dissertation.
