Why They Love Being a Student

This kid absorbs new information like a sponge and it's just amazing how easily connects the dots when applying new concepts. Bill Nye the Science Guy, meet a real life Sid the Science kid; he wants to know everything about everything!

Favorite Subject & Why

Kieran likes anything STEAM. His class recently had a field trip to NASA's Johnson Space Center and it quite literally opened up new worlds for him. Now astronaut has become his #1 career goal.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

A $20,000 scholarship would go a long way in kick-starting Kieran's dream of being and astronaut (or Dentist or Engineer, he has lots of ideas). I would love for him to never have to worry about money and focus on building a beautiful life.
