Help Get Kaylie To Italy Fund!

I have been playing volleyball for quite a while and working my butt off at it. I was invited to represent the United States in a program called AIST (American International Sports Teams) in a volleyball tour through Italy this spring. I will be traveling through Italy, exploring the boot, and playing a lot of volleyball along the way. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity and huge privilege to have been invited on the tour. An even cooler aspect of this opportunity is that I have also been in contact with several coaches overseas and have an opportunity to further my volleyball career after I graduate. Playing in this tour will allow coaches to watch me play and will give me opportunities to sign. In other words, professional volleyball is potentially in my future and I cannot even express how much that means to me.

Before I get too far ahead of myself however, I need to focus on paying for the tour. All together it costs $3,895.00. This includes flights to and from the United States, travel expenses through Italy, tournament entry fees, volleyball uniforms, lodging throughout the tour, and some meals. I have already earned $1,300.00 but am struggling to earn the rest. I am working long hours over winter break and picking up any odd job I can here and there if it fits into my current work schedule (with that being said, if you need anything- I'm your girl!) On top of that, I am also training for Italy. When I go back to school in January I will continue to train, attend class, work at the school, and at the YMCA teaching swim lessons upon request.

This is where the begging comes in... If you could help me out in any way it would be greatly appreciated. If you are unable to donate, please just keep me in your thoughts. Anything and everything helps, thank you so much!
