Hello, My name is Samuel Dominguez-Yanez, I am a rising 11th grader in Wilmington, Delaware. I am raising money to be in TeenSHARP, which is a program that will help me get ready to attend one of the top colleges in our country on the best financial aid terms possible. I’m particularly excited to continue participating in TeenSHARP so they can help me stay sharp academically and connected with a community of peers who are also striving for excellence throughout my now exhilarating high school journey. I look forward to growing as a leader and a student so that I can achieve my dream of being at one of the United States top universities. I am writing to request your support for my participation in the TeenSHARP this year. At TeenSHARP, I attend virtual college readiness workshops and group advising sessions throughout the school year. I work with TeenSHARP’s college advising experts to explore and apply to various enrichment opportunities that will position me better for college. I also implement initiatives to better my community and empower my peers. There have been many parts of my life that have changed how I organize and manage my life. Some things TeenSHARP has taught me is how to be organized and use time wisely to your advantage, having schedules to not forget anything important, and many other important life habits that can benefit our adult lives. During the school year, I will also get the chance to participate in virtual college tours where I will have an opportunity to interact with students, faculty, and admissions representatives. I need to raise $350 to help cover a portion of the cost of my participation in the program this year. Therefore, I am asking you and other sponsors to invest in my success. Any donation would be extremely appreciated. I need to raise the money by August 1st.

You can donate here at my GoFundMe page or via TeenSHARP’s Harambee donate page, or by mailing a check to TEENSHARP 4023 Kennett Pike #50690 Wilmington, DE 19807 (please just note on the envelope that it is for my fundraiser).
