My name is Keyana, and I’m currently a college student living in Traverse City. As many people know, the cost of living here is high, and it’s been a real challenge to keep up with all the expenses that come with being a student. I’m reaching out because I need help covering essentials like food, books, transportation, and getting my license and a car. Even basic things like cleaning supplies and materials for school projects and assignments have become difficult to afford.

I’ve been trying to find a job, but it’s tough to get one that pays enough to cover everything. Even when I do find work, most places don’t pay very well, and it’s still a struggle to make ends meet. With the next semester coming up, the stress and anxiety have been building, and I know I need some extra support to get through this time.

Receiving help through this fundraiser would make a huge difference in my life. It would relieve a lot of the stress I’ve been feeling and allow me to focus more on my studies and daily life, instead of constantly worrying about how to afford the basics. I want to thank everyone for helping and showing compassion to someone who’s working hard to better her life through education. I truly appreciate any support you can give.
