Hi friends,

I’m so excited to share that I’ve been accepted into the Esthetician Program at Palomar Institute of Cosmetology this fall! This program will help me grow my skills and knowledge, expand my passion, and take my business to the next level by allowing me to offer even more services to my clients.

I’ve been wanting to do this for years, but figuring out the finances has always been a challenge. As some of you know, I currently work two jobs, but I’ll need to quit my part-time job to attend school full-time, which will make income pretty tight. I completely understand that this is a want, not a need, but I’m coming humbly to ask for help.

Scholarships are limited (though I’ve applied to a few), and Pell Grants cover a little less than half. My goal is $7,000, which will help cover tuition, school supplies, and living expenses while attending school full-time.

If you know me, you know I’m extremely stubborn and absolutely hate asking for help (to be honest, I’m embarrassed to even have to make this), but this is something that is super important to me, and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to make it happen.

Any contribution, big or small, makes a difference and helps me take this next step. Thank you so much for your support and for helping me invest in my future!

With so much gratitude,

Lani
