Hello!!
I’m sure most of you are even more broke than me, but please hear me out and if you have a dollar - less than a dollar to give - I hope I can give you a reason to donate.
My name is Lau, I am seventeen years old. Some of you might know my blog from my angsty teenage poetry, most of you do not.
Recently I was accepted to my dream school in Europe, specifically Holland. My father, my number one supporter who has always told me I could do whatever I wanted, has told me that this might be unachievable.
The first term is $15,700 for tuition alone, projected yearly cost is $29,000 and scholarships aren’t plentiful in Holland, like. Less than 10 plentiful.

I was accepted for an international water management degree, I truly believe that access to water is going to get harder in my generation and that’s… Just not okay with me.
I don’t kid myself, I won’t be able to raise this money online, why would I? I write poetry but I’m not well known- I’m just a kid. But maybe I can raise something, just enough to pay for the first year, this is really my dream school I get the feeling that even just one year, with thousands of debt, would be a privilege. I set my goal to $5000 but honestly even that feels like a pipedream.
I’ve graduated highschool early with all A’s and B’s, I have a 3.7/4.5 GPA with college credits in Environmental and marine science. I don’t want money to be the reason I fail, I’ve had enough panic attacks over the years over money, I don’t want it to overcome me.
Please help me succeed. I will campaign for rights to water; I will change how we distribute water globally; I will repay. Please, please help me.
