Help Send Lillie to the NSLC

Hello! I’m Lillian, a dedicated student in both college (Columbus State Community College) and high school (Westerville Central High School), a swimmer, an actress, and a swim instructor at Aqua-Tots. Some more quick fun facts about me are:

I've been taking college courses since the 8th grade

I've been swimming competitively for 6 years

I received an MVP award for swimming

I received an Outstanding Scholar-Athlete Award for Swimming

I recently went through a traumatic event and this would make me so insanely happy

I am S. N. A. P. certified

Last year I received a letter inviting me to attend the National Student Leadership Conference, which is an opportunity for students to participate in a career-focused leadership program of their choosing, during which they will stay on a college campus and meet industry leaders. I am enrolled in the Law and Advocacy program, where I’ll stay at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. In this program, I’ll be participating in mock trials, meeting important officials such as Supreme Court justices, and understanding what going to college for law and what being a lawyer would be like! From this program, I hope to gain hands-on experience relating to working as a lawyer that will be applicable to me in the future, along with learning what people higher up in this industry do. I feel as though it’ll be a very fulfilling experience. I want nothing more than this as I'm an aspiring lawyer. I’ve recently endured a very traumatic and life-altering event leaving me feeling hopeless. What I wish to do as a lawyer is preventing people from feeling as hopeless as I did. I simply want to do things for the people so they’ll never have to feel alone in this world, I want to be a voice for those that don’t have one.

To cover tuition, I hope to fundraise at least half of the payment, in addition to my job as a swim instructor at Aqua-Tots where I work 4 days weekly and pick up as many shifts as possible. A donation of any amount would be very appreciated.

Thank you for reading!
