Tuition for Emergency Medicine Program at Stanford
Donation protected
Hello, I am Colin Lowery and I am a 15 year old sophomore attending Eastlake High School. Recently I was invited to represent the Eastlake Branch Library at the Advanced Emergency Medicine program this summer at Stanford University in collaboration with George Mason University. It is a 10 day hands-on program where high school students will be tought various medical skills by actual Stanford Medicine Faculty while living on campus. These skills include learning how to suture, splint, physically assess patients, and anatomy lessons in Human Cadaver Labs.
For as long as I can remember, I have known that I want to serve and heal others as a medical doctor and specifically a surgeon. Unfortunately, I have spent months of my childhood in hospitals with ill family members and even as a young kid I always felt a comforting peace of mind while being at/in hospitals. At 13, I applied and was selected as a junior volunteer at a local hospital at the earliest age applicable. I proudly serve 3 hours a week as a pharmacy aide at Sharp Chula Vista Hospital. This experience has solidified my love for medicine and my positive self confidence that I will be a medical doctor.
Academically, I have ensured my pursuit by being a 4.3 weighted GPA student as a sophomore with 3 A.P. courses to date. My passion and motivation has yielded straight A's since middle school and is fueled by two important factors to this story: My calling to serve as a Medical Doctor and my humble desire to attend Stanford University.
In order to attend this once in a lifetime opportunity, I will need to pay $6000 for tuition. This tuition covers all education, housing, and food for the 10-day program. Based on my desire to independently make this opportunity happen, I have created this gofundme campaign. The programs deadline for enrollment payment is February 15, 2019.
I am honored by any amount of financial help received. Please feel free to reach out and ask any questions about my story, goals, passion, program tuition costs, etc. This campaign is my own personal way of pushing myself to become better prepared for college and medical school. Thank you in advance for ANY consideration.
