Fund Annette's Aerospace & Aviation dream

Good day,

My name is Annette, and I am raising funds to attend the RICE Aerospace & Aviation Academy during the summer of 2023. This is a huge opportunity for me, one I never would have had, if I was still living in South Africa.

Our family immigrated to the United States at the end of 2018. It has been a tough couple of years, considering the global pandemic, a new school system, being taught in a different language and 2 years of remote schooling, but I found my feet, my passion and really would like to attend the program.

Please support me financially. I am a dedicated Portola High School scholar with a passion for physics, mathematics and chemistry.

I have to finalize my commitments by 31 May 2023 and any funds received will be applied for:

If you can't contribute financially, sharing this campaign with others would be just as appreciated.

"Astronomy, the study of the universe, its origins, and its contents, is by far the most interesting STEM career I've considered pursuing. The main reason for my interest in this field is the large variety of interesting sciences incorporated into it, including my two favorites, chemistry and physics. One of the most captivating aspects of astronomy is the ability to explore the unknown. This opportunity is life-changing." - Annette van Wyk

Thank you for your support and I am deeply appreciative of your kindness,

Annette
