PLEASE SUPPORT MY EDUCATION
I'm Gokul.S, from Chennai studying at Christ University, Bangalore. 

I live in a nuclear family which consists of my dad, mom, and sister. Born in a middle-class family where education is considered the heart of happiness and a foundation for a bright future, everything in our family was going well or rather very well. Since my schooldays, I've always been ACTIVELY PARTICIPATING IN THE STUDENT COUNCIL. I was my SCHOOL'S HOUSE CAPTAIN during my 8th grade and a part of several clubs too. Also, I was the ENGLISH CLUB SECRETARY OF THE SCHOOL in which I did my 9th and 10th grades. I was very fortunate to experience and use the privilege of being the HEAD BOY OF THE SCHOOL to serve my school during the 12th grade. I scored 92% in my CBSE class 12th board examination I have had a collection of conduct certificates since my 3rd grade.

Also, I’ve got CERTIFICATES OF MERIT, DISTINCTION and secured outstanding ZONAL and NATIONAL RANKS IN reputed exams like NATIONAL SCIENCE OLYMPIAD (TN RANK-6), SIMO MATHEMATICS OLYMPIAD, UNIFIED INTERNATIONAL ENGLISH OLYMPIAD (TAMILNADU RANK -4), ALL INDIA UNIFIED CYBER OLYMPIAD etc, NTSE ( TN Rank 111).

I DECIDED TO OPT FOR A DUAL DEGREE with a combination of legal studies for my undergrad. I got selected after giving my entrance test and interview to do my UNDERGRAD AT CHRIST UNIVERSITY for the desired course, BA LLB (Honours).

I ALSO GOT ADMISSION OFFER LETTERS FROM MANY UNIVERSITIES AFTER GIVING THE NATIONAL COMMONS LAW ENTRANCE TEST (CLAT).

1. Lloyd law college, Delhi NCR
2. IILM University, Delhi NCR
3. Presidency University, Bangalore
4. Galgotias University, Uttar Pradesh
5. Vijaybhoomi University, Mumbai
6. Gitam University, Andhra Pradesh
7. Marwadi University, Gujarat
8. SRM University, Delhi
9. National Institute of Management & Technology, Noida
10. Vivekananda Global University, Rajasthan.

Finally, I got into Christ university and was shortlisted and SELECTED FOR THE LITIGATION AND THE GENDER STUDIES COMMITTEE, IN THE VERY FIRST-YEAR OF MY GRADUATION ITSELF. Recently, my team’s memorial GOT SELECTED FOR THE SECOND ROUND OF THE IISMR COMPETITION after one month of pure hard work.

When our family was overjoyed by seeing my achievements in the education field, further fulfilling the dreams of my father who has done so much sacrifice to see his children marching towards a bright future giving us the best platform for education which was his only goal, SUDDENLY ALL MY ACHIEVEMENTS AND QUALIFICATIONS WERE PUT TO A TOTAL HALT, as the head of our family, my father, our creator and protector, who was everything for us, whom we were all relying on, for our motivation and great moral support for us, fell ill and was hospitalized due to a sudden brain stroke. Every happy moment of our family came to a halt and WE STARTED GETTING DROWNED IN THE MOST SADDEST MOMENT OF OUR LIFE, BOTH FINANCIALLY and PSYCHOLOGICALLY. We were so much dependent on him and he has never let us do anything independently and has not allowed us to even let the tears come from our eyes. We were too young with almost no exposure to the outside world. Still, we gave everything possible to save my father, whose life was very precious for us and was in the hands of the doctors. We spent till the last money we had, hoping my father would recover.

BUT FATE PLAYED ITS ROLE AND TOOK OUR FATHER AWAY FROM US, leaving our family in a very unsecured situation with no earning member in our family and no psychological support which none can give us other than our father.

NOW MY EDUCATION IS THE ONLY HOPE FOR MY FAMILY to come back strong from all the hurdles of life. Having got admission to all top universities, I AM AFRAID MY KNOWLEDGE WILL NOT BE VALUED IF I DON'T CONTINUE MY STUDIES DUE TO THE CURRENT FINANCIAL SITUATION. I can compromise on any other needs of mine. But EDUCATION IS MY FIRST OR FOREMOST PRIORITY. If I am supported financially for my studies. I will be very grateful for the support and definitely will value every money that is sponsored, by exposing me as a bright student and completing my studies successfully to serve and fulfill the needs of my family and the society that is expected from me.

I COULD NOT SAVE MY FATHER, BUT ATLEAST I CAN FULFILL HIS DREAMS AND MY DREAM TOO, WITH THE SUPPORT FROM ALL THOSE WHO CONSIDER THE IMPORTANCE AND ROLE OF EDUCATION IN THE LIFE OF THE YOUNGSTERS TO BUILD A BRIGHT FUTURE FOR THEMSELVES AND THE SOCIETY.

IF MY REQUEST IS FOUND GENUINE KINDLY SUPPORT ME FINANCIALLY OR BY YOUR PRAYERS, WHICH WILL HELP ME MOVE FORWARD TOWARDS A GOAL IN MY LIFE THROUGH MY EDUCATION.

My father has paid the tuition fee for the first year alone. I HAVE ALMOST COMPLETED MY FIRST YEAR OF COLLEGE AT CHRIST. PLEASE SUPPORT ME TO CONTINUE FURTHER.

The college fees structure is as follows.
Tution fees 2 lacs per year x 5yrs = 10lacs
Hostel fees 80,000 per year x5yrs = 4 lacs.
TOTAL EDUCATION EXPENSES for 5YRS = 14 LACS.

Thank you all for reading with patience and seeking your blessings!
With Hope,
Gokul.S.
