Fundraising for a scholarship and humanitarian work

$145 of $2,500 goal
Given by 6 generous donors in 4 weeks

I hope to raise funds for things like medical insurance as I have accepted a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Nationwide

I have recently accepted a two-year MA scholarship (Crises Management) and job opportunity working with NGOs in Kathmandu, Nepal beginning next month.

It is a once in a lifetime opportunity to work in the humanitarian/development sector and begin my career. However I am extremely unprepared, have no savings (due to limited time) and there is no support offered as they are already providing a subsidized degree. If I sell everything I have of value than I will be able to afford the necessities involved for the trip. However I will not be financially secure, have bond for a room, a laptop or medical insurance.

I am determined to seize this opportunity and will go regardless. However at this point every dollar counts and will be the difference between genuinely struggling or being secure.

Use of funds

Funds will be used on medical insurance, a second-hand laptop and securing a room.
