I am an 8th grade student at Port Charlotte Middle School and have been nominated by one of my teachers to represent my school and community at NYLF Explore STEM in Miami Florida. By attending NYLF Explore STEM, During this immersive experience, students learn by doing as they take part in hands-on simulations, workshops, and competitions, while making new friends and having unforgettable adventures as we explore new environments.

As you can see, this will be a powerful experience, enabling me to interact with respected professionals in various fields while building relationships with students who will be my future colleagues. Attending this program will allow me to further my interest in Medicine and Health Technology and reach my career goals . I maintain a 4.1 GPA in all honors classes, I am involved in several extracurricular activities such National junior honor society, tutoring, math club, volleyball and soccer. I recently was accepted at FSW collegiate to obtain my High School Diploma in correlation with an ASN degree to fast track my education goals.

Imagine if you had been given this opportunity for a life-changing experience when you were in school and were unable to participate for lack of funds—that is why I am reaching out today. My participation in the program depends on whether I can raise $3,700 in sponsorships and donations. I am investing every dollar I can of my own money to make sure I don’t miss out on this unique experience, and I am also taking on extra jobs to raise the funds I need.

Your support for my sponsorship request would be greatly appreciated. I will contact you next week to discuss the possibility of receiving your support. I have enclosed background materials on the program to answer your questions and help you make your decision.
