Donation protected
Hey! My name is Chanel Vidal. I am currently a Junior studying Media, Culture, and Communication with a minor in Business of Entertainment, Media, and Technology at New York University. This upcoming Fall 2019, I will be studying abroad at NYU Sydney for 4 months!! Considering it is my last year at NYU, studying abroad is a bittersweet closing chapter. I have also been accepted into NYU's Global Internship Program in which I will participate in an unpaid internship for academic credit.
Studying abroad is costly. A round-trip flight from NYC to SYD as well as the student visa I must apply for before leaving cost nearly $2,000 all together. That is why I need your help to allow me to continue pursuing my dreams throughout my final year at NYU.
I am a first-generation student who has experienced first-hand what it is like to be restricted from fulfilling my goals because of a lack of financial resources. However, I am determined to raise the necessary funds to help alleviate the costs of things such as the flight, visa, meals, and clothes for my internship. I am working a part-time retail job this summer in hopes I can save enough to support myself while abroad. I come from a single-working parent household where most times, ends just do not meet. I want to make my mother proud of me for accomplishing my dreams and showing the world that a first-generation, HEOP Latina scholar with a 3.7 GPA can make it anywhere in the world!! Even in Sydney, Australia!
No matter the size of your contribution, just know I deeply appreciate any effort made to support me! You are not only allowing me to get to Australia, but you are allowing me to be an exemplary role model for young Latinas all over the nation who aspire to receive a higher education and break free from all the societal limitations that discourage us from reaching the top. We can, and we WILL! THANK YOU ALL! Peace, love, and blessings.
