Help Fund Elisse to California - UCLA

Hi my name is Elisse Howard and I just recently graduated from Binghamton University with two degrees: BA in psychology and BS in Human Development. I’m happy to announce my official acceptance into the Masters of Social Welfare program at UCLA! After being accepted to both Columbia and NYU which were my NYC dream schools, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and go to my dream school in California. As a undergrad, I couldn’t afford these schools and UCLA gave me the privilege to have a good education at a great price. I’ve always loved helping others and working with local communities. My intersectionalities as a Black, Latinx woman has caused me to see how systematic oppression and discrimination can heavily affect marginalized communities. My mission is to fight against white supremacy, imperialism, misogyny, xenophobia, colonialism, and racism and to continue to be a voice for those silenced.

Moving cost and other expenses will be a lot and I am humbly asking for help on this journey if you are able to give. If you would like to donate or send a graduation gift, please consider donating to my GoFundMe or these other platforms! This is my information:

Thank you everyone that has been on this journey with me and I appreciate all the love and support. We are only going up from here!
