I am reaching out to you today on behalf of Ace (aka Audrey) Carter. As many of you know, Audrey recently experienced the devastating loss of her beloved father, Michael, on October 14th, 2023, just halfway through her first semester of college. The loss is, as you can imagine, unthinkable. Beyond the emotional distress this has caused, the loss of his income has significantly impacted her family's ability to invest in her academic career at this time. While she will be seeking grant and scholarship options in the future the window for those forms of aid is closed for the duration of the academic year. We are seeking your support to help Audrey overcome these financial obstacles and pursue her dreams of obtaining a college degree.

I believe that education should not be hindered by financial hardships, especially in the face of such a tragic loss. By contributing to Audrey's GoFundMe campaign, you can help alleviate the financial strain she is currently facing. Your generous donations will directly support Audrey's college tuition, textbooks, and living expenses, ensuring that she can continue her education without the added stress of financial instability.

Despite the challenges she has faced, Audrey remains determined to persevere and complete her college education. She is committed to honoring her father's memory by achieving her academic goals and making a positive impact in her chosen field. As she told me recently, she is also "living his dream of living and learning in the mountains." With your support, we can empower Audrey to overcome these financial obstacles and provide her with the opportunity to thrive academically and build a brighter future.

Your contribution, no matter the size, will make a significant difference in Audrey's life and enable her to continue her education without the burden of financial hardship. Together, let's rally behind Audrey and show her that she is not alone in her journey. Thank you for your generosity and for being a beacon of hope for Audrey as she navigates through this challenging chapter of her life.

Note: All funds raised will be used solely for Audrey's college expenses and related financial needs (tuition, laptop, software, books, food, living expenses, etc.).
