Being A Raise: My Ambassadors

Decent Essays
I want to be part of Raise.me Ambassadors because I like to tell the world that money is not the factor that will define oneself. Nowadays, money acts as a voice that is used to speak out one’s thoughts. Not only that, even knowledge comes with price that most people could not afford. However, by being part of this organization, that supports the idea of helping students to have opportunities regardless of money by proving themselves through knowledge and passion, I could help myself while sharing the experience with others. I strongly believe that knowledge should be a human right. Being deprived from it is like taking away food and shelter. I think by being a Raise.me Ambassador is my first step to close the gap between knowledge and money.
