I'm Chebet, 17, in my final year of high school. My parents work long hours and didn't go to university, so there's no one at home who can help me understand applications, deadlines or financial aid. I'd like to study architecture. I have a 3.7 average, I volunteer at a food pantry and I have a draft of my personal statement. What I need is someone to read my essays, tell me honestly what's weak, and explain how scholarships work. I'm looking for an hour a week until November. We can do it by video from anywhere. My mother will be at home during every call, and the school counselor knows about this request. Thanks for reading. It took me a long time to ask. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    praying for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Santarém.

      Sending good thoughts, Chebet. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Townsville.
