Michi's Fundraiser

My loving Family
Hello.
My name is Michele, Wife and mother of two beautiful children. Recently this year I was laid off from work. I was working in the mortgage industry and I think now is a time for change. So I have been looking into different programs and have found one that may be perfect for me. Unfortunately I currently do not have the funds to do to pay it, as the program is not approved for financial aid. OK, the tuition is a lot more than what I thought it to be initially . I have copied some information below that was sent to me. There is no way I can come up this money on my own.
This is not including books or any other supplies I have to pay for separately. I’m going to go for MULTI-Skilled Technician Certificate program in my Local community college, which hopefully once I complete the program I will become EKG Certified and become a Phlebotomist as well. This will open the door for me to apply for jobs from a doctors office, Quest or Labcor and other opportunities. If you would like to donate it would be greatly appreciated. :)ALLIED HEALTH Patient Care Technician (formerly MST)
