Thanks everyone for replying! The reason why I close my can pain is because I found out that the Louisiana Center for the blind offers financial assistance for international students so I don't need money anymore Ariel thanks for wanting to donate! :) I live in Mexico thank you so much but I don't need to raise funds anymore because LCB will help me
