Hello, my name is Isabella Ruben. I am 11 years old from the Pueblo of Laguna and a 6th grader at Laguna Middle School. I am active in my traditional ceremonies, an honor student, I play volleyball with my school, and have been playing basketball on various teams since I was young.

This year, I was given an opportunity to travel with my peers to Costa Rica with EF Educational Tours in June 2027, where I will go beyond the classroom and bring education to life, unlock new potential, and open a world of possibilities. The money I raise will go towards my flights, hotels, meals, guided tours, and activities/tickets. This educational trip will also give me college credit earning opportunities.

I appreciate any support, whether it be financial or in your thoughts and prayers.
