Help me go to DECA Nationals!

HELLO EVERYONE!!

My name is Rachelle Kratz, and I need your support to turn my dream into a reality. As a high-school senior, I placed 5th overall in the Pennsylvania DECA state-level competition in the Principles of Finance. I will advance to the national competition in April, representing my school, Spring-Ford High, at the International Career and Development Conference (ICDC), hosted by the Distributive Education Club of America (DECA).

Not only will I compete at a national level in the category of finance, but I will attend workshops and leadership academies for 6 days. ICDC provides amazing networking opportunities for myself during my stay in Anaheim, California. But I cannot go without financial support.

This cross-country trip is coming from my own pocket, too.

For a busy high school student paying for college in a few months, much of this trip will be derived from my personal college fund. I appreciate any kind of amount given.

I work part-time, yet I still find myself falling short with these flight expenses and week-long accommodation costs. Your support will make an incredible impact, helping me seize this ONCE IN A LIFETIME opportunity.

I am missing my senior prom to attend ICDC. This is how bad I want to go. If everyone on my social media donates a dollar, it will be sufficient.

Help me reach my goal, or even beyond.

Somehow, someway. Every dollar helps. Please support me as a student in my education.

Thank you so much for any amount that you can contribute.

Deadline: April 25
