I've raised £9000 to help my dream of becoming an art teacher and make known that being artistic isn't just a hobby. To achieve this I may need to study abroad!

My passion in life has always been art, personally, I feel it calms me down and I feel proud when I complete a piece. That is exactly how I would like the younger generation to feel when they draw, sculpt, whatever they are comfortable with. Art isn't just a hobby; it's a way of life and a means of becoming mentally positive in life and I would love to continue to promote this as a way to help and improve others. As for the funds, there is only one university where I am from and unfortunately relatively popular and hard to get into, which means I may have to study my PCGE abroad to achieve my goals of becoming a secondary school art teacher. Even if it was £50, I would appreciate every penny as it is a means of becoming one step closer to my dreams of teaching the younger generation to grow up with a positive mental attitude, the way I was taught.
Thank you for reading my story!
