Help Malachi graduate from Princeton

Donation protected
Malachi has done everything life has asked of him and more. He grew up under challenging circumstances in Washington DC but became a poet and a dutiful son and graduated in the top of his charter school class.

Now he is a junior at Princeton University and while he has a generous financial aid package, Malachi still has to manage a difficult course load, an on-campus job, and pay $4,000 per year towards his tuition. It's impossible to do that when he also has to provide financial support to his family in Washington DC.

So that means as a junior Malachi still owes $8,000 to Princeton before he graduates. This campaign will cover that obligation and will give him $2,000 for the next two years to cover the day-to-day expenses of just being a regular college student - traveling home for the holidays, going out to a movie or to dinner with friends or all of those other things so many of Malachi's classmates often take for granted.

We made this video to help Malachi reach his dream of graduating from Princeton and to help him feel more connected to the community.
