Hi everyone!! My name is Benjamin (Benji), I am undergraduate and I'm super excited to announce that I have got an admission to study Environmental science at Missouri University of Science and Technology, USA.
This is an incredible opportunity and I am so grateful to my friends and family who have supported me in my education journey thus far. Growing up in a low-income household in Ghana, West Africa, was challenging. Traveling was something my family and I could only dream of. But now I'm able to travel to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates trying to make a living back home.
My parents, raised in their own respective hardship, dreamed about the places we would go around the world, in the hopes that one day we would be able to explore it for all it has to offer but unfortunately I lost my dad. This trip would mean not only such an advance in my education, but it would also mean the beginning of so much more
Sadly, traveling to America is more expensive than any of my other travels. Naturally, I'm trying to save as much money as I can, but I would be incredibly appreciative if someone you know with a kind heart could help me out by making a donation to lighten my travel expenses. I want to work as an advocate for environmental programs when I get back to my home country by working with local communities to help them find solutions to issues like soil erosion, water pollution, air pollution, and more. Much obliged!
