Scott Murphy hasn't added a story.
Hi, my name is Scott and I am currently in my 5th year of High School, studying 5 Highers. My dream is to study and play basketball in the USA, and due to FLAG (Foreign Links Around the Globe) this is quickly becoming a reality, but first I need your help to pay the fees! I need to save £5000 and would appreciate all of the help I can get.
I hope to spend 10 months in the USA where I will live with a host family and enjoy the life and culture of America. I play Basketball at the National League Level and have played at the U18 and U16 level. I hope by doing this exchange I can not only better myself as a player but also become a better person and expand my horizons. Upon my return I want to study Marketing at Strathclyde University and achieve a career in Business. I am a very self-motivated person and have a positive outlook on life. This opportunity to study in the USA would help to expand my knowledge and have a great impact on my future whether it be my career or daily-life.
To help pay I work Part-Time in McDonalds and have sold items, but it just isn't enough. Time is going fast and before I know it I will be leaving in August. The final payments are due for May which is even closer!
I would also love if you could spread this page around and also recommend any sources of funding you might know of.
Again, I appreciate all of the help I can get and can't thank you enough for any donations made.
*NOTE* You do not need to own a Paypal Account to make a donation. The payment is processed through Paypal but you do not need to own an account. You are effectively paying 'As a Guest'. Hope this helps if you do not have Paypal, thank you very much.
Scott.
