Michelle Macario - Low-income College Student
Donation protected
Hey there, my name is Michelle and I was recently featured in a NYTimes article by Dan Levin.

Following it's publish, I have received messages from folks who want to help me. Currently, I am still keeping up with school and searching for stable housing. On the advice of my friends and family, I set up this gofundme. The goal is arbitrary but will go towards my school, monthly bills, food, and general survival. I am grateful to anyone and everyone who reached out to me and donates here.

10/12 Update: Because of the amount of outreach, I reached the initial goal within two days. To say this was unexpected is an understatement. With people still reaching out, I decided to increase the goal. Thank you to everyone for thinking of me, and reading the article.
10/17 Update #2: Hello again, this past week has been a rollercoaster. Because of these contributions, housing, food, and possibly a vehicle are within my reach. Thank you, thank you, a thousand times thank you.
