Hello everyone. My name is Megan and I have the opportunity of a lifetime to participate in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in November 2012 and London New Year's Parade in January 2013. The only problem I have is money. My mother and I have been working on fundraisers for me to do so I can attend both parades.
I'm currently serving as co-captain cheerleader on the varsity cheerleading squad at the school I attend. By being a captain, I have a chance to attend the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. What an event that will be.
I tried out for All-American Cheerleader and made it and now have a chance to participate in the London New Year's Parade. Can you imagine walking in front of the Queen...WOW!
Thank you so much for making my dreams come true by helping me get to these great locations. I truly appreciate all of your help and support. Without kind and generous people such as yourself, I wouldn't be able to make my dream come true. I will post pictures of my trips as soon as I can.
Below is a breakdown of costs for my trip:
Macy's Parade: $1799.00
Airfare: $313.00
London, England: $3095
Airfare: $326.00
Total for both: $5533.00
