I am raising a wonderful, loving boy who deserves to go to the Washington/New York trip in June, 2016. However it is very expensive and we are not able to provide funds for the trip.  My husband and I are retired and on social security. This boy is my step grandson who I have raised since he was 3 months old. We have never had any financial help for his needs but this trip is beyond our means. Tyler is an awesome young boy who so desperately wants to go on this trip. He is kind and compassionate, loves to help people in need. He gives freely to others and has received kindness awards at school. His father died last August and he is still griving from that loss. His grandpa died 4 years ago and he prays no other members of his family will die.  Tyler is a very good boy and he deserves the chance to experience this educational opportunity. We would be ever so grateful to anyone willing to help us raise the funds needed. Thank you.

Sincerely,
