We are Jennifer and Taven an engaged couple here in St Louis Mo. As a couple, we are very concerned with protecting the enviroment (among other social causes). With this in mind, Jennifer has been in school at SLU for the last few years studying Environmental Science and Geology. A few months ago, she graduated with honors and received her Bachelor's of Science degree. It goes without saying (but I am saying anyway) that we are very proud of her.
Last week Jennifer applied to be a Health and Saftey Inspector for the Hawaii Department of Agriculture and was offered an interview. This is an amazing opportunity to work to protect one of the most pristine natural environments in the US and to even be considered is a great honor. When she accepted the interview, the date they gave her was next week and the flights are more than $1000! As you may imagine, her full time student status taxed our finances, and the short notice is making it difficult for us to send her to the interview.
Since graduation, Jennifer has been working incredibly hard, taking a serving job while looking for more permanent work. This had allowed us to just begin to pull out of the financial hole we were in. As we have supreme confidence in her ability to get the job, we will be sending her no matter what. This means we will be once again in the hole and digging our way out...
Anything you can give before her trip will be amazing, but please continue to donate after her trip as we will cover the remaining costs of the trip by neglecting our other expenses. Even a temporary loan would be helpful! We really appreciate you reading this post and even considering helping us out! Please don't feel bad if you can not donate, we certainly understand.We will make it work no matter what we have to do!
