Why They Love Being a Student

My son thrives on learning new things and is able to remember them. He struggled a little through schooling during COVID and excelled all the way after the lock downs were lifted. He has straight A’s and has achieved these grades for years.

Favorite Subject & Why

He enjoys history and math. My two worse subjects. He enjoys complex math issues that challenge him and he believes that history matters.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

My son would save this money for college as his ultimate goal is to play soccer for a high end college. Fees obviously come with college and sports. He has played soccer for the last 8 years and just like school, he has only excelled. Excellence deserves reward to keep on striving. I believe my son will do great things in life and with this money.
