Help Ikrame go to University of Pennsylvania!

Hello everyone :)

My name is Ikrame Rekabi, and I'm reaching out to you for some much-needed support. I'm currently a graduating senior majoring in computer science at the American University in Cairo, and a Tomorrow’s Leaders program scholar, which is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State and awarded to talented high school students from low-income backgrounds and with outstanding portfolios.

I've recently been accepted into the Master's of Robotics program at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn). It's a dream come true for me, but I am facing financial difficulties. I come from a low-income family in Sale, Morocco, and I've worked hard to get where I am today. Unfortunately, UPenn doesn't offer financial aid for its graduate programs, and the cost of tuition and living expenses is beyond what I can manage alone. In total, I need approximately $86,000 yearly. Given that I will be pursuing loans and working part time in my department there, I will be able to cover up to $50,000.

I'm determined not to let finances stand in the way of my dreams. I want to pursue my passion for robotics and make a difference in the field. But I need your help to make it happen. Any contribution you can make, no matter how small, will bring me closer to achieving my goal. Please consider donating to my GoFundMe campaign and sharing it with your friends and family. With your support, I know I can make this dream a reality. Thank you so much for considering, and for your support along the way.

Best regards,

Ikrame
