Hi John,
I am excited to announce that I'm running for Houston Community College (HCC) District V Trustee! Education is the key to escaping poverty and achieving the American Dream, and I have seen this firsthand.
My dad came to the US with $42, secured a world-class education, and started a small business. My mom came here when she was 12, earned both undergraduate and graduate degrees, and became a professor at the University of Houston-Downtown. Through education, my family and I have lived the American Dream.
With this privilege comes the responsibility to pay it forward and ensure everyone has the same opportunities. I have, therefore, dedicated my life to education - tutoring middle school students while I was in college, becoming a high school math teacher upon graduating, and creating Momentum Education, a non-profit focused on helping first-generation, low-income students get to and through college and into the workforce. Working with over 1,000 students has shown me the real potential for community college to change lives.
I am running for Houston Community College District V because I believe that HCC should: (1) provide pathways to career through effective workforce training and internships; (2) offer connections to universities via transfer advising and partnerships with four-year institutions; and (3) engage in good governance based in transparency and fiscal responsibility.
But, I know I cannot do this alone. So, I am asking you to join me in building a movement to ensure every student has the opportunity to reach their dreams. There are two ways you can help:
1. If you are interested in knocking on doors, texting your friends, or putting up a yard sign, please sign-up to volunteer. [[link removed]]
2. If you can contribute financially, please visit our donate page. [[link removed]] Please contribute any amount that is meaningful to you, as every dollar helps. [[link removed]]
Finally, please do not hesitate to reach out with your vision because this campaign is about everyone. Your ideas matter; I want to hear them and be an advocate at Houston Community College!
Thank you, and I look forward to seeing you on the campaign trail,
Raj
