Hi! I am a 46 year old married mother of 3 children ages 9, 18 and 23 and need donations or grants to pay back my student loans. I graduate today with a BS in IT - Multimedia & Visual Communication (3.77 GPA) earned recently in Dec. 2010. My student loans are looming to be paid back starting in June 2011 and I cannot afford to pay it back at this time ($600/mo). My 18 year old honor student needs a car and insurance and because we will have her student loans and the added car and insurance payments, there is no money left to pay off my student loans. Our credit is not good due to a house fire on Christmas Eve 2007 (full renovation) that resulted in a bankruptcy in 2008, so debt consolidation is not an option. My only hope is to defer my loans if possible while she is in college, but my student loan debt will remain. I am willing to teach computer lessons in my community via the computer or locally (Baton Rouge, LA) to those who cannot afford to pay, if a business or organization would in turn donate to pay back my student loans ($60,000+). My heart is for the community and I love to help people learn!!
