My name is Carmella, and for my entire high school career, I’ve dedicated myself to academics, extracurriculars, and every opportunity for growth that I could find. I currently hold a 4.6 weighted GPA, am ranked #3 in my class, and participate in five clubs—three of which are honor societies. Beyond that, I’ve earned over 100 service hours, tutor and assistant teach, and am on track to complete my associate’s degree in science before graduation.

School has truly been the center of my life for the past four years. But since this is my senior year, I want to celebrate all of the hard work and dedication that brought me here. To do that, I hope to join my school’s annual senior trip to New York City.

There’s just one problem—I’ve invested so much into academics that I don’t have the funds to cover the trip myself. That’s why I’m reaching out for support. Any contribution would mean the world to me and would help make my senior year unforgettable.

Thank you so much for considering helping me make this dream a reality!
