To all my supporters, you are donating towards a masters degree course (MSc) at the University of Sheffield in Marketing Management Practice.

I am a student who has recently graduated from university in Swansea with a 2:1 BA (Hons) Marketing Management degree and needs to move onto the next stage to establish my career.

In my last two years at college, while taking my BTEC in Business before going to university, and during each holiday period since I have worked as gardener to help me self fund my university education. Nevertheless, as a resident of England, I have graduated with a high level of debt.

To enable me to get the best start in my future career, I have applied for and been offered a place at the University of Sheffield. I will apply for a postgraduate loan from the government to help fund my degree but this is only sufficient to cover rent and living expenses and I need help with the tuition fees of £11, 750. If I can raise sufficient funds by September to pay for my course in full, I can take advantage of a small discount in the fees payable.

I would welcome any donations towards meeting my course fees and helping me achieve my dream. Any amount you feel able to give, however small, is really appreciated. If you are able to donate more than £50, you will receive my special thanks by crediting you in my final dissertation.

Thank you taking the time to read this and thank you very much for your support. It means a lot to me.

Jonathan
