My name is Jeneiah Canales, and I’m a senior at Ferris State University completing my Bachelor’s in Social Work. I’m reaching out with something personal and humbling, but filled with hope.

When I started college in 2022, life brought challenges I wasn’t prepared for. But in the middle of those hardships, God met me. During my sophomore year, I experienced a moment that completely shifted my life, His presence became real, and my purpose became clear. That encounter led me to pursue social work so I could serve, advocate, and bring hope to people who feel unseen.

This final semester is the last step toward that calling. But I’ve reached a financial barrier: I’ve maxed out my student loans and have a remaining college balance that must be paid in order for me to graduate this spring.

It’s incredibly hard to ask for help, but sometimes God calls us to lean on community. Any support, whether through prayer, sharing this link, or donating, means more than I can express. Every contribution helps cover my remaining tuition, books, and fees so I can finish strong and begin the work God placed on my heart.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for supporting me in any way you feel led. Your kindness brings me one step closer to serving the world through the gift God gave me. — Jeneiah
