Help us Get Our Own Place

Going to college is definitely necessary in todays age.  You go so that you can create a better future for yourself and hope that you wont have to worry about money.  During your college years is a totally different story.

My name is Johnny and my girlfriends name is Shanda, we are both 21 years old and have are attending college.  We have been together for 3 years and love each other very much.  I attend the University of Cincinnati and I am majoring in Sports Administration and minoring in Marketing.  I one day hope to be able to work for the Cincinnati Reds or the Miami Heat.  Shanda attends the Christ College of Nursing and wants to pursue a career in nursing, more specifically in Pediactric Oncology.  We are both paying for school ourselves.

We are both currently living together in my Uncle's house.  We are living here because we moved from Columbus to attend school and was offered a place here by my Uncle for a fee.  We thought it wouldn't be bad but we were wrong.  Are room is cut off from the rest of the house and all we have is a bedroom and a bathroom, there isn't much room for us at all.  We both work full time jobs so that we can pay for rent, food, school, and also are trying to save up enough money so that we can move into our own apartment.  

Our goal, and dream, is to be able to move out of here by the end of July, but on our income it would be much longer then that and we have already been here for too long.  We have found a couple of places that are very nice and are very reasonable in price.  We would also have more room for our little dog.  His name is Jack, he is a mulchi (Chihuahua Maltese mix) and is 10 months old.  Being in this small place hasn't been any fun for him as well.  

With your donation, it will help us get are own apartment and buy things to furnish it.  The three of us will be very greatful for your help and consideration.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and we also thank you for your contribution.

Johnny, Shanda, & Jack
