Why They Love Being a Student

He loves going to school to learn and graduate so he can become the best train engineer.

Favorite Subject & Why

My son loves learning about history especially world War 1 and world War 2.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

We don't have that kind of money to put him through college. Personally I had 2 choices in life either join the army or don't go to college. I want Max to have the ability to go to college since he doesn't like sports very much. I think he excells most in Math and History. Money like this could make it so he wouldn't have to ever worry about going to college.
