Help with tuition

Donation protected

Hello, my name is Alicia Addams. Two years ago I decided to embark on one of the biggest adventures of my life. I left my home of Austin, TX to pursue my dreams of being the first in my family to graduate college. I moved to Buffalo, NY (which was a scary, yet exciting move) to attend Canisius College in their Animal Behavior, Ecology, and Conservation department. Up until now, I have paid my way through school. Without a support system to help me with my education, I have taken out student loans and worked long hours and days, doing my best to afford tuition and all other costs associated with getting a degree. As I approach my final semester, after many long years, I am left in an anxiety provoking position. I am unable to secure private student loans and am unable to make other arrangements to cover the costs of tuition after financial aid. This is a heartbreaking reality as I look back at all of the blood, sweat, and tears shed. If you have been in my life in the last several years, you have seen just how much getting this degree truly means to me and how hard I have worked. I come from a broken home and childhood, and have tried desperately to create a better life for myself by being a first generation college grad. This is why I am asking for your help. Any and all donations are greatly appreciated. Please help me in my final college semester. Your donations mean more to me than I will ever be able to put into words.
