Greetings family, friends, and kind strangers! My name is Hadiyah Cummings and I am a Sophomore Political Science major, Administration of Justice of minor at the Illustrious Howard University!
Since being at Howard University, I have had the pleasure of serving as treasurer of the Howard University Mock Trial Team which is ranked 6th in the nation. I have also interned at 5 different organizations with the most notable being a legislative intern for Senator Tim Kaine in 2017, an investigative intern for the DC Public Defenders Service of DC in 2018 and I am currently a Congressional Fellow for Senator Kamala Harris. While interning and being involved on campus, I have maintained a cumulative 4.0 GPA
This summer I plan to enhance my undergraduate experience by traveling to Cape Town, South Africa to intern with a human rights organization. I will be interning with the School for International Training which will provide me the opportunity to get professional work experience while also earning 6 academic credits studying the legacy of apartheid and practice of Social justice in South Africa.
However, I cannot do this without your assistance! I am in need of only $3000 more dollars to fund my trip abroad. This money would go directly towards paying for my flight to Cape Town and the 4 vaccinations that are necessary for my travel. I have been fortunate enough to receive a scholarship from the Fund for Education, the Lucy Moten Foundation, and the School of International Training. These scholarships will cover my tuition and homestay.
Unfortunately, my family and I have exhausted all other resources and are simply not able to cover the cost of my flight and vaccinations. Although I come from a low-income family, I have never allowed money to stop me from pursuing my dreams and I do not plan on starting now. With that being said, ANY donations, big or small, would be greatly appreciated! If you are not able to donate, a quick share or prayer are welcomed too!:)
