I'm Laura, 16, in Year 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 journalism.
I have a 3.9 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 August. 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.

- 1 hour a week

Sending love, Laura. I hope things turn around soon. I hope August is when things finally get easier
You're not alone. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Oakland
you're not alone, Laura. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Nairobi.
Take care. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
You're not alone, Laura. Study hard! I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Sending strength, Laura. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. It's not much but it's yours
Hope it all works out, Laura. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Praying for you, Laura. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Aurora
Wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Sending love, Laura. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Put this on a community board in Aurangabad this morning. Blessings.
Thinking of you, Laura. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care
Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Heliopolis.
