Here is some information:

I am working at Loudoun County Public schools; I live at home with my family and help them financially; I have a 20 year old sister with downs syndrome; I take care of her most of the time; my parents are older now (in their 60s) so any time I am not working I am with my sister taking care of her needs; I have had two previous jobs and due to my work I am unable to attend a campus which is why I have chosen online option; I want to attain a bachelors degree in hopes to get a good job and get my family out of the financial stress;

I want this well written to submit to a college application. I can provide an other information that can help. I want this statement to stand out and help with my admission process.
