Amy get to Iowa to her godmothers funeral and see her family

My name is Amy and I live in France. This little blurp seems so superficial to the history and reason I want to have a ticket to Iowa! I was born in Iowa and raised by an amazing family/ families. My godmother Dorothy Niess passed away on Thanksgiving day and the funeral is in Iowa on Dec 7. She and her 9 children and dozens of grandchildren are family to me.

I would love a ticket from Bordeaux to twin city Minneapolis.. I would need to depart on Dec 5 from Bordeaux and can return after Dec 9. Tickets are expensive on short notice and I can't afford it.

The Niess family have raised me. There are 100s of them . I can't imagine missing this. I know it is a privilege to ask for something I want, but I can't think of any other way to hug and show my appreciation to all of those who have made me who I am. Plus , it is selfish. I really want to be there. So, if you are in the giving holiday spirit, please help me be there , please. If I can't make the whole fund I can't go, so , I will happily return what you have donated. It only works if I can buy the ticket.

Thank you for your consideration. Amy
