My Travel Story

by: Alexia McFarlane Start Date: May 28, 2025 - End Date: Feb 27, 2026
Hello! My name is Lexie, and I am an international student from Jamaica currently in 11th grade.I'll be going in 12th grade September. I come from a low-income family, but I have big dreams and I’m reaching out for your support to help me achieve them.

In 2026, I hope to begin my journey at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management. UNLV is one of the top schools in the world for hospitality and tourism, and getting accepted there would be a dream come true. This program is my pathway to becoming a hospitality professional who can one day make a difference in the tourism and service industry globally and back home.

Coming from a family with limited financial resources, I know that my dream won’t be possible without help. My parents work very hard, but the cost of international tuition, living expenses, and other education-related fees are simply too high for us to afford on our own.

Your contribution, big or small, will help me cover:

Tuition and academic fees
Student health insurance
Housing and meals
Books and learning materials
Visa application and travel expenses
I am passionate, determined, and ready to work hard. I want to make my family and community proud and give back in the future by helping other students like myself. Your generosity can help me get one step closer to that future.

If you can’t donate, please consider sharing my campaign with others who might be willing to support. Thank you so much for reading and believing in my journey.

With deep gratitude,
Lexie
