How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
Laiyana has big dreams of being a scientist for NASA and although $20,000 would not cover, it will give that start toward building that possibility for her. She understands the value of hard work and constant focus and displays it regularly while remaining on honor roll, and ultimately deserves an opportunity to strive for everything she wants, and this will be the boost she needs!
