Hello everyone! My roommate and I are blessed to move into our
first apartment this following semester. We are stuggling college
students who both work hard at our jobs when we're not in school. I
intern at a law firm and my roommate works in a dress sales and
alterations store. We are also both dedicated scholarship students
who are involved in various activities at our university including
debate, sex trafficking prevention, and drug and alcohol abuse
awareness. I am majoring in English, hoping to become a high school
teacher, and my roommate is a pre-medical student majoring in
Biology in the hopes of becoming a Pediatric Trauma Surgeon. As you
can tell, we both love kids!
We also love our families and pets (my cats, Misty and Amber, and
her dog, Coach) and we miss them terribly while we're at school!
Can you help us make a cozy and stylish apartment to study and
relax in during our upcoming school year? After we both buy books
andd school supplies, funds for comfort and style become very
scarce.
I am adding a link to our wishlist but we would also appreciate any
donations of items that could be helpful for a first apartment, as
well as monetary donations to put towards furniture, groceries, and
supplies. Thank you!
You can view the attached YouTube video to see my roommate and I
getting interviewed at the beginning of our orientation week last
year. We had just met each other! So awkward. :]
Check freecycle.org & the free stuff section on craigslist
often & post a want on both. Check furniturebanks.org to find
out if there is a furniture bank in your area. See if you local
paper has a free stuff section. Good luck.
