Help me for my Erasmus +

.000 € is what separates me from a dream, a dream to study with ERASMUS+

Hi, i am Nini from Georgia, not in USA but a small country in Caucasus. After finishing high school i started studying in Ilia state university in Tbilisi and at the moment I am doing a long-term volunteering project helping children at risk in Romania.

Cultures and language’s ar fascinating for me, because of that are I decided to study International Relations. My degree is really interesting and important for me but after learning for sometime i got more into my studies but the information that i got wasn’t enough. I finally understood that only theoretical knowledge wasn’t enough so i searched for practice and opportunities which in Georgia i don’t have that much. After some research i decided to find way to study outside of Georgia to have more experience and opportunities. Since i already had some problems with money i tried to find programs that would be cultural,educational and also affordable . This is the part where i found Erasmus +. An open door in Europe for my future success.For me Europe is the way of better education and better future. If i study in Europe i will have European experience, which gives me priorities for my career,job and Visa.

Unfortunately, Erasmus+ financial help is far from covering all the expenses for a year which means i need to have the rest of the money which is roughly 3000€.

This was the moment i realized that my future was at risk. Georgian economic system is very bad, the minimum wage per year is 4.000 €. Only way to save this money is to not spend any salary that i have for a year, to don’t pay rent, food and University which is not possible.For that reason, i will not be able to save this amount of money. You might think why i don´t ask my parents but i just can´t. My father abandoned us and sadly my mom is living and working abroad in Italy, so that we can survive in Georgia. Unfortunately, my situation doesn`t allow me to pursue my dreams, and the only factor which is stopping me is a financial one, and i had realize how life can be challenging and unfair.

With this situation I am really stressed, nervous and disappointed because this is one of my dreams and I never expected some day to do a fundraise for educational purposes, however, my possibilities are down to zero, and this is my one and only chance to have an opportunity to achieve my goal!

Thank you for the time you took to read my story. I am grateful for every euro you can donate to me. Even sharing this message is really important to me.
