Looking for a graduate who can spend an hour a week reviewing Inés's essays until November.

San Cristóbal de las Casas
I'm Inés, 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 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 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    Amazing support system

    I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

    Restored my faith in humanity

    This is the kind of person who restores your faith in humanity. They didn't just offer help; they genuinely cared about my wellbeing and followed through on every commitment.

    You're not alone, Inés. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.

      Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Dhaka donated after I showed her your page. God bless.

        Wishing you peace, Inés. Study hard! God bless

          Keep going, Inés. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Thinking of San Cristóbal de las Casas.
