Campaign Story
Let me Introduce myself. Single-handedly, I raised my 3 children worked full-time, and went to school. I am a grand mother of 11 beautiful grandchildren. Educationally, I have made it into a 3 year doctoral program. An advisor in my BA program told me I was not intelligent enough. Since, I have completed 2 years of the Ph.D. program and then, the big whammy! I was laid of, had to move, and I ran out of money to fund the rest of the program. It has been daunting trying to figure out where to find the balance of the funds in-order to complete the program. Of course, I had to put it in the back of my mind because survival became paramont. Finding a job was tough, but I was fortunate...just not fortunate enough to go back to school. My future hang in the balance. How would I pay my student loans without finishing school to earn a livable wage, I asked myself continuously, that is, what I kept asking myself, because now,I am in a huge debt to the tune of $240k. Then, I found this crowdfunding platform. I am entering my story with the hope's that someone will hear my plea and fund the balance of my Ph.D at $55k; so, I can go out and do good work in a premium wage. After graduation, my plan is to lead an organization to educate and involve young people in Social Entrepreneurship and Sustainability projects to help society and do good for us all.
