I'm Christopher, 19, 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 public health. I have a distinction 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 September. 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

                  thinking of you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

                  • Keep going. Hope this works out for you. After 20 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
