HI Steemers, my name is Anthony Acquaviva, I am 21 years old and dedicated to making a difference in this world. I am studying Chemical Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh, and a few months ago I published my first project on the platform Kickstarter with the hope of help to the students of my University, Unfortunately and just 4 days complete the fundraising to finance my idea, I've only got $ 25, a friend of my university told me about Steemit, a community that helps others to realize their dreams, and I decided to try their luck.
I grew up in Cranberry Township, PA, and I have always been well connected with my community. I have worked in the service industry (restaurants, retail, bars, etc.) for many years as well as volunteering (Relay 4 Life, Miracle League, charity softball tournaments, etc.). These experiences further inspire me to continue helping others; this time through a Tech-app.
Since I'm currently in college, I can best indentify with other college students and understand their concerns. The hard part of school should be getting the degree, not where to find a textbook or the right building. College should be made simple, and that is what our app will be designed to do!
I am a member of a Tech-startup that is designing an application to better assist College Students with obtaining college essentials easily. We are dedicated to reshaping college communities by creating a safe and connected ecosystem of students within a campus.
The money will be used to support our server, improve user interface and design, and to provide additional services to students to make their college experience more enriched and easier. We hope to raise this money as we prepare to launch our app locally at the University of Pittsburgh!
As a startup, we are not about "getting rich" or "making it big." Our goal is to make college easier and connect the college communities so that future generations are as prepared as possible for persuing their degrees. I have personally noticed many problems on college campuses throughout the US, and I have made it my goal to help address and fix these issues.
This is an investment in education! We will not stop our mission until we've made a difference on college campuses everywhere. Imagine when you were in school or think of the horror stories you've heard about college. It could be a bad roommate, trouble finding the right building, not being able to purchase the correct textbook, or anything that made the "college experience" more difficult. That is our motivation.
A donation shows that you care about future generations to come and care enough to invest in their education. For those of you who believe in our cause, we cannot thank you enough!

Hi @acquaviva , there have been a lot of people pretending to be others lately on Steemit. Is there any chance you can verify yourself with a photo including a signed piece of paper (it's the Steemit tradition)?
I will do so friend thank you
