I would never ask for money for myself, this is for my daughter. Over the past four years I have battled cancer and we have had our house burn down. This has left us in debt - even though both my husband & I work full time. We are doing good compared to most every other request I have read - but the financial burdens of these events have made it very difficult to help our daughter achieve her dream. She is a ballet dancer, and I have been able to keep her in lessons by sewing costumes and doing other volunteer work in exchange for dance tuition. Now she would like to attend a summer ballet intensive. She is very talented, but scholarships are hard to come by - especially for girls. The cost is $4,000. We have asked family members to contribute - and they have, but we still need $2000. If anyone can help, we would be grateful.
