Learn MoreWhy They Love Being a Student
Five loves being a student because learning feels like an adventure. His favorite part is virtual recess, where he builds worlds, creates games, and collaborates with kids around the globe. He enjoys discovering new ideas, inventing things, making art for home and his mini‑films, and he’s excited to take more animation classes to grow his creativity.
Favorite Subject & Why
Five loves Music because it helps him express himself, Art because he can create gifts and props for his films, and ASL because it lets him communicate with people who use non‑verbal language. He also loves Science and STEM thanks to Bill Nye, Sid the Science Kid, and all the hands‑on experiments and activities that make learning exciting.
How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
$20K would help Five grow his creativity and education by funding music and art supplies, travel to museums and historical sites, and stable housing while he continues to excel. He also dreams of a PC setup to create animations, videos, and gaming content as he works toward becoming a YouTube creator and exploring STEM projects and experiments.
