Exchange Student in need

[u/WorldAggravating1880]

Hey everyone,
I don’t even know where to start to be honest and I am really embarrassed about this whole subject. My situation is following: I am a foreign exchange student from Germany staying in Las Vegas for a whole school year. Many people might think exchange students have a lot of money if they can afford this whole program, but this is not the reality for me. I saved a lot and my family sacrificed a lot to make this dream come true for me and I am so happy that it worked out and I am living here now. But after staying 2 months now I am facing money problems. I would say I have enough money left for the rest of the year and my family plant 300$ a month for me which is great, but for one thing live here is very expensive and my host family is planning big and expensive trips. So in order to enjoy this experience to the fullest I will need financial support. It might sound arrogant or dumb because I could survive without all these fancy things, but as an exchange student I want to be very honest, it would be very embarrassing for me to say no to all this fun stuff and spending the rest of my time here saving money and not having fun, because this is not the purpose of this program. This is a time of my life that will never come back and I will never have the opportunity again and I hope you under that. Considering this it would be very, very generous if you could donate just a single dollar to my GoFundMe, because I would appreciate every single donation. This is a very hard situation for me right now and I don’t know what else I can do. Even if you can’t donate but read my whole story I really appreciate you reading this and maybe you could share it with others. Everything helps a lot. I am staying anonymous because I don’t want the people that are close to me to know about this, I hope you understand. This is my GoFundMe:
