DR Service Trip Scholarship Fund

Donation protected
What's this fund for?
In November 2017 I will be accompanying a group of students from University High School to the Dominican Republic to take part in its 5th annual service trip! While this trip is an excellent opportunity, unfortunately, many students who attend our urban magnet school can't take part in the program due to financial restrictions. It is my goal to select a deserving student from Hartford to receive a scholarship to enable them to take this once in a lifetime trip. The goal is to one day make this trip available for any and all students who want to participate, but we need help in doing so!

Why Donate?
The service trips I was able to take in high school redefined my entire outlook on life, and ultimately led to my career choice in public service. I know this service trip will do the same for my students, some of whom have not had the chance to travel or step outside of their comfort zones before. All proceeds will go directly toward making this possibility a reality.

Thank you SO MUCH  for considering helping change the lives of our students and giving them a cultural service opportunity that they will carry with them for life. Your support is greatly appreciated!!!
