SEND JAKE TO UGANDA
Hello to All!
I hope you are
all doing well and enjoying this beautiful thing called life! So if you have
not heard I'm hoping to travel to Uganda for a month this summer, May 31st-June
21st. It is a trip sponsored
by Appalachian State University, social work department! As a social work major,
I would receive 3 credit hours for this service trip as well as the experience
to partner with a NGO in Uganda working to improve the living conditions,
educational opportunities, and economic well being of women and children in
Uganda.
The
tricky part is that the cost of this service trip is $4,000. My amazing parents are willing
to fund half of the cost, if I commit to coming up with the other $2000. I realize that the time period is very short. Over the next few weeks, I will be working
diligently to raise the funds to make this happen. I am reaching out to you as my family and
friends, with the hope that you might assist me in this endeavor. As a financially struggling college student,
I need all the help possible in making this amazing service opportunity a
reality! If you are able, please feel
free to donate to my cause. Any amount that you can give is more than enough
and graciously accepted. My deadline is APRIL
1st to raise my half of the funds. Spread the word and please donate
if you are able.
So to sum it up:
Where: Service
trip - Uganda
When: This
summer, May 31st-June 21st
Bottomline:
$2,000
By when: April 1st
Cheers to all of
you!
