<div>Who We Are
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Joao. I'm from the favela - slums in Brazil, a poor place in Brazil with lots of violence. I saw people fall into drugs and witnessed the lack of education and food. In a dangerous place like Brazil, I studied in public schools - all of them with depressing, terrible education. I was the typical favela kid who was going to suffer because education wasn't for everyone in this world. But in high school I discovered I want to help heal people as a doctor, to be a hero for everyone - not just my country but distant places too, like I'm still trying to do today. now I’m a medical scientist, physicist, and biomedical scientist with a strong background in research and public health. My partner, Misty, is also a future medical student with a deep desire to care for others and support her family through medicine.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re both already halfway through our path in medical school, and our documents are okay. We’ve made it this far through hard work, scholarships, and sacrifice, but now we’re reaching a point where we need help to continue.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I'm Misty. I come from a very simple, uneducated family where I was never encouraged to become someone in life - we lacked the support or foundation to even begin. The idea that 'college doesn't change lives' was what I grew up with; I was always taught to live in the simplest way possible. But that's not what I want for my life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My dream is to become someone who can be useful to others, especially to my family. I want to show them that education does transform lives, that you can develop a genuine, multifaceted personality, and have a peaceful, respected life - like as a doctor. That's why, even after all the immense difficulties I've faced, I still believe we can improve.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why We're Asking for Help
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is not financial aid. We’re not asking out of obligation. We know no one is required to help another person study. This is simply a request for support from those who believe in education, health, and a future with good and helpful doctors for the underserved.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The real cost of our medical journey is around $20,000 which is really cheap for two people with scholarships and Joao’s experience in studies but we’re asking for $10,000 to help us stay on track. Any amount is good. Your support will be used to pay for tuition only, since food and housing are already organized.
</div>
<div>Why It Matters
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Helping students in medicine is not just helping individuals it’s investing in the future of public health.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Medical students today will be the ones caring for your family tomorrow. Supporting our journey means supporting the next generation of healthcare providers, especially in a time when the world needs more doctors prepared to serve with knowledge and empathy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We believe that education in health is a priority for any society that wants to care for its future and its elderly.
