Carley's Costa Rica Practicum

Donation protected
My name is Carley Hulley.  I am a student currently enrolled in the Practical Nursing program at Fanshawe College and I am one of thirteen students selected for an Interprofessional Placement in Costa Rica.  This is a 3-week placement for Fanshawe students and faculty who will work with the Costa Rican Ministry of Education and local Social Workers to help promote healthy lifestyles, wellbeing as well as promoting the English language within the schools and local communities.  I am excited to be chosen from hundreds of applicants.  

I believe travelling and working in Costa Rica will help me grow not only as a nurse but also as a person. As nurses we will be teaching these children about healthy lifestyles and wellness, which they may not have access to otherwise. It excites me knowing that we will have an impact on these children’s lives by teaching them these skills at a young age and hopefully shaping their future selves. Health Teaching is a passion of mine.  My goal is to get my degree in order to become a Public Health Nurse so I can continue to help both children and adults live a healthy lifestyle in our local community.

The placement is from February 17th,2017 to March 10th,2017. Each student must secure their own finances for the trip. The estimated cost of the trip is $3500.00, I am writing to you to in the hope that you might consider providing a donation so I can take a piece of Canada and all the knowledge our education system provides to the children of Costa Rica.
