Hello,
My name is Jacqueline Payne. I am currently a full time student at GA State University planning to earn a B.S. in Public Policy with a concentration in economic development. I am 20 years old and began as a music education major in fall of 2006. I was forced to change my major after having an adverse reaction to the pertussis vaccine where I developed hypo tension and a seizure disorder. Because I did not suffer through major surgery or death I am unable to get compensation from the vaccine compensation fund set up by the government. However, Going through rehab and dropping out of school really made it hard for me to fund my education. I am looking for an opportunity to get back on my feet again and take some of the struggle away from the cost of college. 
I would like more information on how to apply for support from the Hacker foundation fund.  As government funding for education recedes, the cost of  college takes up a greater percentage of total income making it a struggle for many people, including myself to balance out the most basic needs in an effort to afford an education.  I have been searching for scholarships, and found this wonderful opportunity provided by this foundation. 
thanks,
Jacqueline Payne

p.s.
I apologize since this is my second email. I was using my boyfriend's computer and accidentally sent the original email through his gmail account instead of mine. To make sure that mistake does not happen again, I am using my yahoo account. Sorry for the inconvenience.
