Hi My name is Ben.  I am a 38 year old father of three beautiful children. I live in Maine with my wife and kids. I studied Art in college and earned a BFA in 2001. It was my hope that I would soon be able to return to school and further my education to become an Architect.  I have been in love with architecture since I was a child.  About a year and a half after my wife and I got married, we became pregnant with our first child. I soon fpuns a better paying job and we bought our first home. Things were perfect.  Unfortunately, three months into my new job there was a large layoff at the company I was working for. I lost my job. We had a house payment and a baby on the way. We barely scraped by on my wife's pay as a bank teller and my unemployment check.  A few months later I finally found a new job.  This job was a blessing, but we were set on a path that was a bit of a downward spiral.  Needless to say, I was in no position to be heading back to school.   My children are now 11, 9 and 6.  I am still dreaming if becoming that Architect that I always hoped I would be.  I desperately want to go back to school and pursue my passion.  But, I need your help.  I can't support my family fully while going to school full time.  We have two children with ADHD and a child with Autism.  That pretty much makes daycare out of the question.  So we are a one income family.  Can you help me?   I would love for you to see my architectural illustrations as well as my other artwork.  Please visit my website www.benmcdorr.com.  Thank you so much for listening to my story.  I am grateful for any help you can give me.  Thank you, Ben
