What: School Tuition Balance

When: by August 19, 2024

Where: Detroit, MI
​​
Why: In highschool I attended cosmetology school, but due to my graduation and college schedule I missed out on 400 hours which prevented me from getting my cosmetology license. I have still practiced the craft of enhancing beauty, however my range of impact is limited because of my credentials. I am ready for that step. I was a little short for the full tuition, so I am fundraising so I can be licensed. This is more than a hobby, it's a passion and one of the first steps to me entering the beauty industry to eventually teach, travel, and beautify worldwide. 
​
Many don't know but I started my paint journey because of nail art. For me beauty school and my gift in artistry goes hand and hand. I still need help meeting my financial quota, but I believe the right people will be touched to donate, whether to receive a portrait to add to their art collection, to see me overcome this obstacle, or because they knew what it was like to want to go back to school but finances and "life be lifing" made it very difficult. 

DONATION: Thank you for hearing my story and being willing to assist in making this 11 year dream a reality. If you'd like a hand drawn portrait from me as a token of appreciation, then please uplad a picture of what you'd like and donate below. Thank you. May God bless you and may your seed be reimbursed by God and multiplied, that you will receive favor because of your heart towards me alone. That is my prayer for you. In Jesus' name, Amen.
