Hi everyone—

I’ve been taught to never take for granted that America is the greatest country on Earth and it is a place where hard work pays off. But, if you’re not deemed to be at our government’s poverty level, the college-tuition assistance opportunities for you are slim to non-existent. When one door closes, I look for one that’s open, so I’d like to ask for your help to raise $47,642 for my first-year tuition.

When I received my acceptance letter to law school through their honors program, I was thrilled to begin this new journey. But, the limits on grad school-loan laws by the federal government and having a mountain of debt to tackle before even beginning my professional career, is disheartening.

I have worked hard to secure a partial scholarship. If we can meet, or even come close to, this goal—it will be a major relief.

I am continuing to work while in law school to finance basic needs such as food and transportation. I’ve needed to take over $45,000 in student loans just to enroll this Fall 2025. Without your help, I will accrue an estimate of over $140,000 in student debt when I graduate–it’s depressing…

It would mean the world to me if you shared this post with your friends. Any amount will be greatly appreciated–whether you’re able to donate $15 or $50–every dollar counts. Thank you for being a part of this journey.

With the utmost gratitude,

Eleesia
