Why They Love Being a Student

In his words "I like learning. It makes me smart and I know a lot of things". When I asked him to elaborate he said, "I know my abc's. I can count to 100 and I know more than you mom". It gives him confidence if you couldn't tell.

Favorite Subject & Why

He really likes science and STEM. STEM because "I code and am good at it". Science because "I like the earth and don't want it to die." He's been VERY concerned about the state of the earth and how littering is effecting it.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

He has trouble with speech so this would help us get him the help he needs. His school is also in need of new supplies so I would like to provide the with what they need. I just want my child to have all the tools necessary to give him the best shot at life possible.
