First thing, thank you for taking the time to read my story (:

I am a first-generation college student who recently graduated with my master's degree, finally pursuing the dream my immigrant parents had for me. While I am proud of how far I have come, the journey has not been easy.

A few months ago, I had to make an unexpected trip to the hospital, which left me with a HUGE bill that I am now struggling to pay. I've managed to pay some off but with rent and student loans already weighing on me, it has become incredibly difficult to keep up with everything on my own.

The funds I raise here will go directly toward paying off my remaining hospital bill.

I have always dreamed of becoming a lawyer with the hope of making a difference. One day, I hope to publish a book someday!

I am asking for any support you can offer—your kindness will help me move forward. I am deeply grateful for any help, no matter how small! <3
