Joshua and Deborah's TeenSHARP Fundraiser

Hello! This is Joshua and Deborah Dibal and we are fundraising for our participation in TeenSHARP, a program that will help us get ready to attend one of the top colleges in our country. With all of the changes in the education system this year due to the pandemic, We are particularly excited to participate in TeenSHARP’s Striver program to help us stay sharp academically and connected with a community of peers who are also striving for excellence.  We look forward to growing as leaders and students so that we can achieve our dreams.


We are writing to request your support for our participation in the TeenSHARP- Striver program this year. As a TeenSHARP Striver scholar, we attend virtual college-level classes every Saturday (9am-3pm) throughout the school year. We work with our academic advisors to explore and apply to various enrichment opportunities that will position us better for college. We also implement initiatives to better our community and empower our peers. During the school year, we will also get the chance to visit (virtually!) 20+ selective colleges where we will have an opportunity to interact with students, faculty, and admissions representatives.


We need to raise $750 each ($1,500 total) to help cover the cost of our participation in the program this year. We have been able to raise $390 as of 12/6 but we need to your contribution of  about $1,110 to reach our goal. Therefore, we are asking you and other sponsors to invest in our success. Any donation would be extremely appreciated. 


We would be glad to answer any questions that you have about our participation in the TeenSHARP program to help you make your decision. You may also contact TeenSHARP’s staff (Tatiana Poladko at [email redacted]) or visit www.teensharp.org for further information.


Thank you very much.


Sincerely,


Joshua and Deborah Dibal
