Ginger Needs Help With Student Loans

I'm Ginger. I graduated from Michigan State University last year in April with a degree in Environmental Studies and Sustainability. I am currently on track to pursue my dream of being a Park Ranger - something I dedicated my four years of college to. Protecting the environment and natural resources is my passion and has been an interest since I was a young girl.

I am extremely proud of what I have accomplished in my career thus far, and I owe most of it to my Bachelor's degree from Michigan State. However, I am drowning in student loans. Each month, I owe over $800 in private and federal loans, which is more than my bi-weekly paycheck. Income-driven repayment plans have been "resumed," but when those will take effect is still unclear (if they ever truly will be put in place again). With the cost of living, I can barely afford to feed or get essentials for myself. I'm at a loss, this is me asking for help. I've been told my whole life that it takes a village, and I would like to accept any donation towards my loans that comes my way. I am already doing everything I can, and it is still not enough; all I ask for is at least a share.

Thank you, I hope to be able to pay it forward one day.
