Get Bella to Art School

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Isabella Ferreira, and you can call me Bella. I am a senior at Broadneck High School in Annapolis, Maryland. I am an artist hoping to attend art school in the fall. I am creating this campaign to ask for donations towards supporting me in my impassioned journey of going to art school. I have grown up basing nearly everything I do around the arts. I’ve worked a good portion of my life around aspiring to be an artist. Please view my portfolio at bellas-art.weebly.com!

As a senior, I have taken classes at my community college to get some credits out fo the way for art school. Anne Arundel Community College has great art classes. Yet, I was placed in the highest level class for the kind of art that I would like to study in college. Thus, I am seeking opportunities to study visual arts more rigorously at a university.

I recently won a Gold Key from Scholastic for the state of Maryland for the following piece of art:



My mom and dad have given me everything they can, and I can’t thank them enough for all the challenges they went through that got me to where I am able to be today; however, there is a limit as to how much financial support they can give me. I have now made it my mission to do everything in my power to find the funds to get to a college that will develop me fully in every aspect of becoming an influential artist that will make a positive impact on the world. 

I have been working endlessly applying for scholarships and grants to stack up monetary opportunities to fund my higher education. Yet, I still don’t have enough, given the exorbitant cost of art programs. 

Thank you for reading my story. It means the world to me! To help get the word out, please share my story with family and friends, and on Facebook too! Any help of any amount is greatly appreciated. Each contribution will get me one step closer to seeing myself at a school to study art. 


Yearly tuition of prospective schools I have applied for range from $30,000 to $77,000, and, even if I win every scholarship and grant I applied for, I won't have enough funds to attend college in the fall.
