<human>: Please forgive my long windiness. My wife has taught High School for 19 years. She has a Master's degree in her field. She has spent thousands of hours helping students with their SATs, College Essays, thousands of recommendations. She is highly regarded within her school system and wants nothing more than to have a greater impact. She has the opportunity to get an additional Masters Degree in Ed Leadership, which she must have in order to move into administration/curriculum development. She sees this opportunity as one she can't pass up and will continue to teach full-time while completing it.
    
   Unfortunately, this opportunity comes with the cost of tuition/fees which will push $2000 the first semester and is due immediately. We just can't afford that right now (another long story), and there is not enough time to apply for financial aid/scholarships. She can do that for later semesters.    
     
   Question: What is your view on setting up a crowd funding campaign to raise the money from our community? Her only stipulation would be that upon her completion (1.5 yrs) she will fund a scholarship in our school system for the same amount to give to a needy college bound student?
    
Thank you in advance for your thoughtful feedback.

Provide a brief overview of the text.
<bot>: Is it appropriate to crowd fund tuition now, and repay that by setting up a scholarship for the same amount for needy students? Your feedback is needed.
