Help Artemis Stay Alive: Support For School and Safety
Donation protected
Hi friends, comrades, and all-around incredible people,
I'm reaching out because I need your help. The reality is stark: staying in the U.S. is no longer safe for me. But I have a way forward—an opportunity that will allow me to not just survive, but thrive. I’ve been accepted into one of the world’s top graduate programs in political science and international relations- specifically in Gender, Politics, and International Relations, in Ireland. This is my chance to build a future, contribute to vital research, and ensure my safety.
But I can’t do it alone.
I am an emerging scholar and researcher, currently pursuing a B.A. in Individualized Studies in Feminist Rhetorical Practices at MSU Denver. My work sits at the intersection of rhetoric, economics, and policy, with a strong focus on gender equity and social justice. I have conducted social sciences research- including designing and performing 3 different ethics-board approved social sciences studies as an undergraduate, contributed to journalistic investigations, and developed policy-oriented analyses that aim to create tangible change.
My ambition is not just to study these issues but to actively shape the conversations that drive progress.
To make this move possible, I need to meet strict financial requirements. The Irish government requires me to arrive with at least €7,000 in savings, a full year of private health insurance, and, of course, my tuition costs covered. I applied for multiple scholarships, but unfortunately, none came through. That’s why I’m asking for support—because this transition isn’t just about education. It’s about survival.
Every donation helps get me one step closer to safety, stability, and the opportunity to continue my work.
If you care about justice, equality, and ensuring that people can live—live fully and freely—despite an administration and Republican forces hell-bent on razing everything good, please donate.
Your support will not only help me secure my future, but also contribute to knowledge production, policy development, and civic engagement work that uplifts marginalized communities.
Please contribute, share, and help me make this possible. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
