Learn MoreWhy They Love Being a Student
Damian loves learning… especially when it comes to all those cool science experiments. He loves group STEM projects where all of his friends can work on exciting new science, technology and mathematics experiments!
Favorite Subject & Why
Damian has always loved both science and mathematics. When he was just a toddler he would spout off addition tables while sitting in his car seat, I’m not even sure how he really learned them. He just picked it up so easily. Today, as he is older, he still loves math but he loves science, especially when he can do hands on things. He also loves art, well, the messier stuff, again it’s that hands on learning. Lastly, like almost all kids (and adults too) he loves his technology.
How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
$20,000 would mean Damian would have a easier time going to college. He is from a single person household, mom doesn’t earn a lot, and while $20k wouldn’t pay for all of his college it would make a huge difference with not having as many student loans, which really are a burden for the adults who have to borrow them to go to university.
