Learn MoreWhy They Love Being a Student
Despite all of his challenges with his speech, expression, and his differently able abilities… Anthony is a rockstar. He has made high honor roll every quarter in his general education classes from middle school plus won awards for science, engineering, and digital tech. For his freshman and sophomore years, he has also made high honor roll. He now attends a special school and has already jumped 2 level classes!! He is so smart and he loves anything he sees and masters it so easily!
Favorite Subject & Why
Anthony’s favorite subject is science and all that it relates to. From hands on earth science to chemistry to computer science. He is a computer GENIUS and excels in ways even adults cannot. All he has to do is hop on to any device and he figures out everything in an incredibly short period of time. He truly is a gifted and incredible young man that is in love with science ( and math!).
How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
Anthony wants to pursue science technology since he is able to show his amazing skills and having the money will help him after he graduates his special school to be able to go to either college or a vocational school to learn more and further his education. Due to his disabilities, the money would be amazingly helpful in being able to have an aide help him when he needs the support plus help with tuition costs. Anthony is a wonderful, loving young man that is ready to show the world who he is.
