Learn MoreWhy They Love Being a Student
Vada realizes that knowledge is power and she understands that to truly make a difference in the world- one must first have the knowledge and humility to admit when you don’t fully understand something, rather than to just resist what she doesn’t understand. She has a hunger to learn about the world around her.
Favorite Subject & Why
Vada loves history and math is a close second. She loves learning about the past and how it has changed the future. She’s been inspired by the actions of a few, who have impacted the many. Math is a favorite of hers also, the building blocks of the subject and knowing that numbers don’t lie.
How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
It’s an opportunity, a chance, a hope of a brighter future. Higher education in the US comes at a cost and financial burden either up front or years of student loan debt. $20,000 could make or break a child’s decision to even think of perusing a college degree. What great contribution to humanity could come from a child who is able to secure a college education.
