Help Dr. Yvette Cross the Graduation Finish Line

Help Me Cross the Finish Line: A Kingdom Investment in Healing Minds and Restoring Souls

Dear family, friends, and faith community,

I’m almost there.

Every course is complete. Every assignment submitted. And now, I’m preparing to turn in my final dissertation—the very work many of you have prayed, encouraged, and pushed me through. I’m just steps away from graduating with my Doctorate in Clinical Christian Counseling and Psychology and publishing the book we’ve been building together—a tool for healing, a message for the Church, and a bridge between faith and mental health.

This isn’t just a degree. It’s a calling. A mandate. A ministry.

God has entrusted me with a voice to speak life where stigma once silenced people. To bring biblical truth and clinical tools into places where pain has been misunderstood and overlooked. My dissertation will become a published book that equips pastors, counselors, and believers to care for souls with wisdom, compassion, and discernment.

But I need your help to finish this assignment.

I must raise $1,100 to cover the final dissertation review, graduation appreciation fee, diploma frame, and the associated GoFundMe platform fees. This is the final amount required to cross the finish line and walk in what God has called me to.

Will you partner with me?

No amount is too small. Every dollar is a seed sown into Kingdom work—into breaking chains, renewing minds, and restoring lives. If this journey, this message, or this mission has ever touched you, I’m asking you to help push it forward.

Thank you for believing in me. For praying. For sowing. For standing with me.

Let’s finish strong—together.

With love and expectation,

Dr. Yvette Battle (almost!)
