I’m trying to finish my education after funding it myself for years — any help would mean so much
Hi everyone,
I’m a 29-year-old Payroll Officer from Jamaica, and I’m hoping to get a little help finishing something I’ve worked toward for years.
I’ve been working full-time while paying for my education myself, one semester at a time. I’ve completed an Associate Degree in Accounting, and I’m currently pursuing my ICT qualification with the goal of eventually specializing in networking and building a career in technology.
I’ve tried to fund this on my own for as long as I could. I’ve applied for scholarships and other funding opportunities, budgeted carefully, and continued working while studying. Unfortunately, I’ve reached a point where I simply don’t have enough left to cover the remaining cost of my education.
I’m not looking to fund a lifestyle or anything extravagant. I just want to finish what I started.
I’ve created a GoFundMe with a goal of JMD $800,000 (approximately US$5,000) to help cover my remaining tuition and required academic expenses.
If anyone is able to contribute, even a small amount, I’d be incredibly grateful. If you can’t donate, sharing the campaign would also help tremendously.
I’ve included the campaign here for anyone who would like to read more about my story:
Thank you for taking the time to read this. ❤️
