Support Emmanuel's Journey to Carnegie Mellon

Hi, my name is Emmanuel.

I’m a graduating senior, a proud first-generation college student, and the son of immigrants. I’m also honored to be a founding student and part of the first graduating class of Chatt Prep 2025.

This year, I was thrilled to be accepted into the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon University—one of the world’s most prestigious institutions. It’s a major step toward my dreams of becoming an entrepreneur, and I couldn’t be more excited to start this next chapter.

But before I can begin, I need help.

I’m currently raising $800 to cover my enrollment deposit, which is due soon and will officially secure my spot in the incoming class. I’m also hoping to raise additional funds for college essentials—clothing, supplies, and the everyday items I’ll need to feel confident and prepared as I start this journey.

I’ve worked incredibly hard to get to this point—juggling academics, family responsibilities, and big dreams for the future. For me, this isn’t just about going to college. It’s about breaking cycles, honoring my roots, and building a future filled with purpose and possibility.

Any support you can give—no matter the amount—means the world to me. Your generosity isn’t just a donation. It’s a belief in what’s possible when we invest in young people and their potential.

Thank you for reading, for believing in me, and for helping me take this important first step.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Emmanuel
