Hi my name is Casey, my dream is to become an FX make-up artist. I recently spoke to an artist who gave me some advice and she told me the best way to start my career is to go to California. This trip would open up doors of oppertunities for me. The money will cover the cost of the plane tickets, a hotel room, food, taxi/bus rides, and the 3 day ticket to monsterpalooza. It would also cover the cost of the $100 application fee to MUD college, which I plan on touring the campus while I'm in California.  
Any little bit helps. I appreciate all the support and donations. Thank you so much!
