Beatriz Delgadillo hasn't added a story.
Every single human being on this planet has a mission. I believe that mission is to love God and love one another (Matthew 22:36-40). Whether or not you believe in God, loving one another still stands. The call to love can be lived out in many different ways, during many different times.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I, Beatriz Delgadillo, have felt my call to love in a special way, by serving others through public service. For that reason, I chose to study Political Science, Theology, and Philosophy at Biola University. I am currently in my fourth and last year at Biola and I hope to graduate in the Spring of 2014.
For the last semester of my undergraduate career, I was given the opportunity to live out my mission in Washington, DC. I have been accepted to study Public Policy through the American Studies Program (https://www.bestsemester.com/locations-and-programs/washingtondc/asp) of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities Best Semester progam. This program includes (9) units of classes, (6) units of internship, and (1) unit of professional mentorship. If I raise enough money in time, I will be able to travel to DC for this dream opportunity.
It has always been very uncomfortable for me to ask for help, especially financial help. I have worked hard throughout my entire college years to do all I can to continue my education. This semester, in addition to selling tamales every weekend, I am working two jobs, taking (17) units between Biola University (6) and Fullerton College (11) and commuting on my bicycle every day in order to save money for DC. Between my family and I, it is still not enough.
For this reason, I come to you asking for your help to get to DC. I would be incredibly blessed by any contribution (none is too small or large) to live the mission of love and service during this season of my life. In turn, I hope to enable others to live their own call to love and service.

Prayers, financial contributions, or tamale orders are ALL welcome!
Please help me get to DC! I trust that if is God's will, it will
be done.
Thank you for believing in me and in our mission of love and service.
May God bless you.
