Support with graduation fees for Winther who is the first to graduate in her family

Posted Mar 29, 2024

Despite facing numerous obstacles along the way, she has remained steadfast in her pursuit of academic excellence. As she approaches the culmination of her educational journey, Winther is filled with anticipation and excitement. However, the financial burden of obtaining her cap and gown, along with the fees required to walk the stage, presents a significant challenge. Granting this wish would bring her immense joy and allow her to experience this momentous event.

Winther is 27 years old and lives in IL

Winther is all about finding joy in life, whether it's from laughing until tears, spending time with her beautiful son, paying it forward, or enjoying some delicious food! One of her favorite quotes is "To change your life, you must change your mindset" -Brad Turnbull. Winther is an incredibly resilient, accepting, and warm person. She has a know-how attitude and a very resourceful and helpful spirit to support her family, friends, and even strangers, all with a deep commitment to public service.
