Hello! My name is Leila Pagano. I'm a TCK living in China with my family.

I'm trying to move back to America this year to finish high school at an academy in upstate New York. I'm 17 years old this year and I want to attend Houghton Academy. I got a scholarship but it won't cover the entire cost and my family barely has the money. I don't want to see my father go into debt or my family have to be careful with money for me to go to school.

I was hoping to make this page to raise a little money to help out my dad... I also hope to be able to take initiative in my decision to go to school and make some progress of my own. I hope you would consider helping my family and me, and blessing my life with this opportunity to return to my country and live there.
