Help Kris Stay In College
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Kris, and I’m a freshman at Tulane University. I’m currently majoring in Architecture. My education has always been important to me, and I have always pushed myself academically. I graduated high school with a 4.2 GPA while attending an International Baccalaureate high school, which is a rigorous program focused on college-level work while also encouraging personal growth. I also was a member of the National Honors Society, as well as my high school’s student council.
Along with caring about my academics, I also enjoy finding ways to help others in my community. In high school, I served as a Freshman mentor for two years, as well as interning at the Birmingham Museum of Art for one and a half years, working as an assistant in the Education Department. I am also currently a member of Tulane’s Sunrise Movement chapter, an organization that focuses on pushing politicians to enact environmental change.
I love being at Tulane but may not be able to return next semester due to outstanding tuition. I currently owe nearly $3,000 in tuition. I’ve received as many scholarships and student loans that were available to me, but I am still struggling to pay off this amount. My mom cannot work because she is disabled, and I was unable to find work this semester.
I know in my heart that this is where I am supposed to be. Through my time here, I have cultivated amazing bonds and relationships. I am constantly enriched by the student and academic culture. I am thriving in this environment and can't imagine being anywhere else. Any amount donated would be greatly appreciated ❤️.
