Almost There!

I can't put into words how grateful I am for all the donations that I've gotten thus far! People have been so generous in helping me to be a volunteer in Russia.

For those who have no idea what I'm talking about and want to know more!

I have decided to go to Russia this fall, which means I will be gone at the end of August until December. I am doing this through a program called The International Language Programs; their objective is to help children around the world learn the English language, hoping to open up opportunities in their futures. This is a non profit organization meaning that I am not getting paid and working strictly as a volunteer. Every weekday I will spend at a school teaching during the day and preparing lesson plans.

The total cost of my trip is 2,520. From generous donations from many people I've accumulated 1,650 meaning I need $915 more. My last payment is due July 15th! If anyone is interesting in donating, contact me! It's non-profit, therefore, making it tax-duductible. If anyone has any questions or want to know more just comment or contact me. I will keep everyone updated (:
