Please help support Brayden's Vocal Education!

Hello!

My name is Brayden, I am a Junior at the University of Minnesota Duluth, and a Vocal Music Education major. This means I am studying to become a choir director. I am currently working 3 jobs, one being an internship at a local youth choir here in the Duluth area. There I am able strengthen skills I use in my own classroom, such as, voice lessons, conducting, piano, and teaching general music concepts. My main job is on campus working at the planetarium. There I have had to stretch myself and learn a different field of study apart from my major. There I've run and created new shows, have run a bunch of field trips for kids, and have updated old shows with closed captioning.

I also have maintained an above 3.5 GPA in my studies at UMD, while also being a student leader of 2 student organizations, one of which is national. I've been working hard in my studies at UMD, but now my financial aid has been put on hold indefinitely due to some personal issues with my family. Meaning I have a large tab I have to pay off for the previous semester. This means that I am unable to register for classes next semester. This is quite a last resort for me, this isn't something I do lightly, but if I am able to get this paid off then I know I will be able to get through the rest of my time here!

With my internship, I am already teaching music. The main issue is money that holds me back. If you are able to donate, you have my deepest thanks, and if you are unable please share with other people! All donations will go directly to my schooling, whether its tuition, or books.
