Bobby to Brazil

Donation protected
Do you remember the time when you were young and thought to yourself "I'm ready to take on the world!"?

Well, that's exactly what I'm thinking to myself this very moment! My name is Bobby Hill, and I am a Sophomore at Parsons The New School for Design. Majoring in Communication Design, I am a part of the class of 2019 and an alumnus of KIPP Gaston College Preparatory graduating class of 2015.

I have recently been accepted into IBS , the "International Business School of São Paulo" and have earned the amazing opportunity to study abroad in Brazil for the summer of 2017. While studying abroad I will be immersed in the growing economy of São Paulo, which is on track to becoming one of the largest in the world. At IBS I will be studying "Strategy and Marketing" as well as taking courses in Portuguese, which are some of my top interests. Not only will these courses elevate me in my studies at Parsons, but they will also prepare me for the business world and become more affluent in networking in a rapidly growing society.

Due to being a first generation college student, finances are the only obstacle holding me back from this once in a lifetime experience. I am grateful that I was awarded a scholarship from IBS that covers 70% of the tuition for this study abroad opportunity. However, the only thing that stands between me and getting to brazil this summer is $1750, the final 30% of tuition at IBS and room and board expenses while in Brazil.

Anything that you can give in helping me as a young college student complete one of my many dreams will be greatly appreciated, and I will deliver a personal thank you to each dream contributor.

Thank you,
Bobby Hill
