Help Rhionna Start Her Vet School Journey

Hello, I’m Rhionna Baughman. I’m reaching out to friends, family, and compassionate supporters because I need urgent help to pursue my college education—and to prevent my mom from facing this alone.
 
Academic Achievements & Determination I have dedicated myself to school and community involvement, earning multiple scholarships and awards through sheer hard work and perseverance. Despite these achievements, my tuition still came up significantly short—far more than I anticipated. I’ve done everything in my power to make this possible, yet financial barriers remain standing in my way.
 
️ When Opportunities Are Being Removed The landscape is becoming tougher, especially for young African American students like me. With programs like Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) being cut or dismantled, access to support and resources is shrinking. Institutions are rolling back efforts that once made education more accessible and equitable. This makes it even harder for students from underrepresented communities to pursue their dreams and reach their full potential.

 ❤️ Why I Need Your Help Now My mom has always been my biggest supporter, doing everything she could to help me in this journey. But the burden is overwhelming—and she shouldn’t have to bear it alone. That’s why I’m humbly asking for your support: • Any financial contribution helps—no amount is too small • Even sharing this page can make a difference

  My Dream & Vision My passion is to become a veterinarian, caring for animals and making a positive impact on communities. With your help, I can enroll in college, pursue veterinary studies, and someday use my skills to serve others. Thank you for believing in me and standing with me during this pivotal moment. Your generosity means more than words can express.

 With heartfelt gratitude, Rhionna Baughman
