Charlie’s Study Abroad in Italy ✈️

Ciao! My name is Charlie, and I’m a high school student with a big dream: to study abroad in Italy from January to April 2026.

I have been studying Italian in school for two years but sadly that has come to a halt due to my school system cancelling the Italian language program, and with it, my access to formal Italian language education.

Rather than let that be the end of my journey, I’m choosing to turn this setback into an opportunity. I’ve applied to study abroad in Italy through Greenheart Travel. I’m also planning to enroll in a college-level Italian course to keep progressing

However, studying abroad comes with a significant cost—tuition, flights, insurance, meals, and everyday living expenses. I’m working hard to cover what I can, but I need your help to make this dream possible.

My fundraising goal reflects all out-of-pocket costs needed to support me during my four-month journey.

I hope you all find it in your hearts to donate so I will be able to more smoothly fund my study abroad.

Please consider donating or sharing my story.

Molte Grazie/ Many Thanks! ✈️✨❤️
