Negombo
I'm Eranga, 17, in Grade 12. 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 biomedical science. I have a 3.9 average, I volunteer at the local library 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 December. 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. Thank you for reading my story.

    • Best of luck. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Put this on a community board in Guarulhos this morning.

        • This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Negombo.

          • take care, Eranga. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Rio de Janeiro.

            • take care. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Sent it to 28 people at work.

              • I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Barranquilla.

                    • Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Paris.
