My name is Malachi and I'm a straight-A 4th-grade student at Beulah Elementary School. Last year, based on my maturity, scholastic merit, and leadership potential, my 3rd-grade teacher Ms. Lapallo nominated me to attend the National Youth Leadership Forum (NYLF): Pathways to STEM. I was unable to attend last year and have been invited back this year. I hope to attend a 6-day residential STEM Challenge Program at Trinity Washington University in Washington, DC held July 16 - 21.

Your donation will help me to expand my leadership abilities, discover passions for a future career, and realize the power of my potential. I will also gain invaluable hands-on experience and develop lifelong success skills among fellow high-achieving students. When I grow up, I want to be a Turtle Biologist and I hope to study marine science and biology at the University of Miami, in Miami, FL.

Any donations raised would go directly toward the tuition for this program.

My family and I would greatly appreciate any donations! Please share with your family and friends. Thank you!
