Help Me Attend Brown University

Greetings to all! My name is Henry Nwaru. I am the youngest child in a first-generation Nigerian family and I have always wanted to be an Actor.

After two years, multiple hours of coaching and preparation, and many rounds of auditions, I have been accepted to one of the most prestigious performing arts programs in the world; The Brown University/Trinity Repertory MFA Program in Acting. Each year thousands of hopefuls audition with the dream of being a part of this cohort that only selects 12 applicants.

I have been fortunate enough to have had my tuition covered by the program along with a stipend each month to help mitigate the cost. Unfortunately due to the nature of being a student actor, having classes in the morning and rehearsals/performances at night, means that I will not have sufficient time to work in order to cover my expenses related to housing, books, and materials. I am here asking for your help in easing this $15,000 cost over the next 3 years.

The opportunity to attend Brown is HUGE and something I didn't dare to dream of growing up. So, I'm asking for help from anyone interested in and able to provide support for my studies during the school year. Every bit helps and goes a long way. Thank you for your time, generosity, and donation.

When the time comes, I will pay it forward for the next Henry, wherever he might be.

With the deepest gratitude,

Henry Nwaru
