Raising funds for GRE TOEFL exams, application fees

I am an Indian female citizen aged 27 years old, currently, residing in Arizona. My Purpose is to raise funds for my GRE, TOEFL exams and get accepted to a good US university to complete my Master’s in science in computer science program for 2 years.  Software engineer by profession I have always strived hard to reach my goal, coming to America was a dream for me, My Indian employers never sponsored me to work in USA, I was made to work for long hours without any appreciation neither my parents encouraged me to study or help me achieve my goal, I waited for 5 long years, I said, Twinkle Don’t give up, Many times I was up all night thinking, crying and wishing for a miracle, For years, I had asked the pitiful “Why me” question when assaulted with difficulties of life. I applied for a visa at the embassy and flew here in Arizona. That changed my life. Now my struggles started more, having no work and surviving solely was difficult but not impossible, I took a decision of doing my master’s in computer science which could help me reach my goal and stay in America to help grow America’s economy, I realize that no matter how unreachable my goals may seem and how far my destination may be, perseverance and determination will always get me there. I had to figure out what I would do with the most important resource America will give me- an education. I want to work in non- profit organization to make a difference someday in the lives of people in need, especially children and women in developing countries where they are abused, tortured and forced to live a bad life. My goal is to earn a degree in computer science and contribute to the society as much as I can. As Judd Apatow says “Don't be a jerk, try to love everyone give more than you take and do it despite the fact that you only really like about seven out of 500 people”
