However, I trust you will find the goal of helping college students and graduates, as they begin their work lives, to be a worthy cause as well.<br /><br />I work with undergraduate college students, and the number one concern expressed is the student loan debt they and their families have incurred. Borrowing money to attend college is a must for many families, and without the loans – well, opportunities to be productive citizens are limited, opportunities to achieve life goals are limited, and opportunities for economic growth are also limited. However, beginning one’s work life $20,000, $40,000 or more in debt is daunting, and in its own way…limiting! “Catch-22” <br /><br />Slowly, the word is getting out about the goals of this website and students are beginning to create their profiles. You will find young people who are artists; some who are working for non-profit organizations; and some who are still in college. All are striving to create a sustainable and productive life and that comes with a high price tag!<br /><br />Take a moment to read student profiles—you may find a student you want to support. If so, feel free to email the student and engage in a conversation to learn more. Or, consider donating to the general fund, and feel free to contact me at kbostwick@mchsi.com<br /> <br /><br />It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only do a little. Do what you can. <br /><br />Sidney Smith<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4469282437384365643-8634200693095828582?l=mytincup.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>KAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15050212411734243914noreply@blogger.com0
