Essay: What is on your Bucket List and Why?
My bucket list is small, I am very grateful for all the opportunities I have received in my entire life. I felt in my skin how difficult it is to overcome the poverty line for those who are born into a poor family. So I have a project to help poor people to have real opportunities to grow and overcome this poverty line.
My idea is to create a foundation to prepare these people for life and for the job market. In this foundation, we will receive students from 16 to 29 years old who will study full time. Half the day they will study English and the other half they will study Computer Systems Programming. The preparation time is one year, with each new year other classes will start.
I believe that this is a way for me to thank for all the opportunities that I have been blessed with. It will be my way of changing the world. I wish to have the opportunity to execute this project as soon as possible.
