Help These Feet Keep Moving Forward
Hi everyone, i'm meisya
I am a student from Indonesia who is struggling to keep moving forward to reach my dreams. I really want to achieve my goals, but realistically, it feels impossible. Why? Because my family’s financial condition doesn’t really support me in pursuing my dream.
But still, I believe that God always has His own way to make everything possible.
Sometimes I feel a bit sad when I see my friends getting extra education such as private courses or tutoring. But don’t worry — even when I feel down, I never choose to give up. I always study by myself using whatever I have.
I also try to earn money by selling small things, even though I only make about $1.20 (around Rp 20,000) per week. Still, I’m grateful that at least I have some income.
I rarely spend money at school because I prefer to save it for my college education. But sadly, my savings often have to be used for my family’s needs. Even when I feel discouraged, I keep trying to stay strong.
That’s why I created this fundraising campaign — to ask for your support, your spirit, and your prayers to help me continue my journey in life and achieve my dreams, which are built upon kindness and the help of people like you.
Thank you so much for your prayers and support.
With love,
Meisya from Indonesia 🇮🇩
The first thing I want to use this donation money for:
1. Buying a laptop, because in my whole life, I have never had a laptop. Even when I joined exams or competitions such as OPSI and OSN, I had to borrow a laptop from my relatives or friends, even though they were not very willing to lend it.
The laptop I want to buy is
Laptop (Intel i5/i7 new generation, durable and strong for studying and competitions) priced at around $910 (Rp 15,000,000). The price is quite high because I hope with that quality, the laptop will last longer, and I won’t need to buy another one again.
I also want to look for supporting educational facilities such as courses. Because of financial limitations, I always study autodidactically. Even so, I always become one of the top three students in my class, but I feel that it’s still not enough for me. That’s why I really need additional learning support such as:
2. English Course (EF Basic + IELTS Preparation)
$12 per session × 12 sessions per month × 8 months = $1,160 (Rp 19,200,000) to help me improve my English score.
3. Mathematics Course (Kumon, High School level)
$455 (Rp 6,000,000) for 8 months, including registration fee.
4. Mandarin Course (LIA)
$245 (Rp 4,000,000) for 8 months as an additional foreign language I learn at school.
5. Official IELTS Test — $180 (Rp 3,000,000) to measure my English progress.
6. University tuition fee — $9,200 (Rp 152,000,000)
7. Dormitory — $730 (Rp 12,000,000)
8. Insurance — $60 (Rp 1,000,000)
💰 Total amount needed: $12,740 (around Rp 210,200,000)
The total amount I need is $12,740 to support my educational process — from learning facilities to daily study needs (laptop, tutoring, transportation, books, and other learning expenses) — so I can study better and reach achievements.
Previously, I never joined the courses that I mentioned above. Those are the ones my friends from the top class recommended to me, but because the price was too expensive, it was impossible for me to join. That’s why I hope that with this fundraising and your donations, I can finally reach it — and your encouragement is the best gift I could ever receive. 💙
