I'm Filip, 19, in Form 6. 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 economics.
I have a top-of-class average, I volunteer at my church youth group 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Praying for you, Filip. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Colombo
sending love, Filip. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Study hard! I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings
Take care, Filip. Study hard! Blessings.
