Hi, my name is Berlly Eveillard, and I’m an 18-year-old that lives in Jacksonville , Florida. I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to attend college and play football—something I’ve worked toward my whole life. But right now, I’m facing a financial wall that I can’t climb alone.

Coming from a low-income background, I’ve always had to work twice as hard just to keep up. I’ve held jobs at McDonald’s, Domino’s, and Walmart—juggling school, work, and football training to help my family and myself. I don’t complain, because I was raised to grind. But even with all that, it’s still not enough to cover everything college and football demand.

I need to raise $2,000 to help pay for school fees, gear, travel costs, and training essentials. I don’t have parents who can swipe a credit card or co-sign a loan—I’m really out here trying to make something out of nothing.

Football isn’t just a game to me—it’s my outlet, my way out, and my future. I want to earn my degree and make my family proud. I want to break the cycle. I want to prove that young Black men from my neighborhood can do more than just survive—we can win.

If you’ve ever had a dream that felt just out of reach, or struggled to afford what you were passionate about, I hope you’ll understand why I’m asking for help. Every dollar, every share, every word of encouragement means the world to me.

Please consider donating or sharing this with someone who can. You’d be helping more than just one student—you’d be fueling a dream that refuses to die.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
