We’re very excited about our #DREAMerOfTheDay Camila from FL GRADUATE of Florida International University: “I come to this country with no demands, just a plea to let us fulfill our dreams here.” thedream.us/news/camila/
DREAMers like Esli should have an opportunity to reach their full potential, we all have to gain as a community and society by ensuring our most precious resource, our youth, can fulfill their DREAMs.
Esli says, "TheDream.US made it so I did not have to give up on my dreams. Now I am proud to say that I am the first high school graduate in my family and I am on track to be the first college graduate. Right now, I am not working and focusing only on school, w...hich feels like an absolute dream come true to me. Even in the face of hate and adversity in a turbulent time for undocumented kids in this country, I am unashamed of who I am and hopeful for the future that lies ahead. As a student at Arizona State University, I am pursuing a degree in environmental engineering. It is my dream to build systems that bring fresh and clean water to people living in impoverished and otherwise unfavorable conditions. Fighting inequality of all kinds is important to me, and I believe my degree will translate well to addressing the global population’s unequal access to water, a major public health crisis of today.
