Caleb Goes To Morehouse College Tuition & Expenses

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Caleb Ratliff and every student's desire is to be accepted into their dream college or university! Well, I must say that dreams do come true. I've been accepted to one of my favorite HBCUs...Morehouse College and just to add I have successfully completed my first year!

So now I am a rising Sophomore, majoring in Biology with a minor in Chemistry, and my goal is to continue my education at Morehouse College. My vision & plan in near future is to attend Medical school, so I can obtain a successful career path in the medical field, with hopes to become a medical professional. However, now that I am onto my second year of college, the cost of college tuition, books and other expenses can be bit of an expense. Especially when it's a private college and being an out-of-state student.

Growing up (born & raised) in...Brooklyn, NY where the odds were against me I always wanted better for myself. Knowing that education is essential and if I put my mind to it and stayed focused I could overcome any obstacles or challenges that came my way. So I worked hard and diligently throughout my years of schooling to not only make my mom, and family proud but most importantly myself. I maintained good grades to stay an honor roll student. In high school I played sports (Lacrosse) and even worked (senior year) P/T. I was preparing myself to become a Morehouse Man.

Coming from a single-parent home, my mother has always done her very best at raising and supporting my younger sister and me. For 4 years, I attended Bishop Loughlin Memorial, a private catholic high school and she has financially put me through schooling, and I am so very grateful and blessed. Now I am on to my second year of college and although I have been working on receiving and being awarded more scholarships, we all know those aren't guaranteed. So I decided to make a gofundme college account because I don't want to put that financial burden all on my mom, and I also don't want to have to worry and stress about college tuition. Especially when my main focus should be on maintaining my studies, and receiving good grades to obtain a college degree.

So I'm asking if you would please financially assist me with college tuition and other college expenses. This would also motivate me to continue to beat the odds and pave the way for me to become a Successful Young Black Educated Man. Monetary donations are highly appreciated. No amount is too small and I can promise you it will be greatly used. Please donate and share

Sometimes aiming for the stars requires just a little more help. Please provide the extra push I need to reach for the stars.
