Hi, I am Harper Foster. Recently I have been given an amazing opportunity to attend the UN General Assembly in New York this September. In order to pay for the transportation, hotel costs, and food necessary to partake in this experience, I am asking for your help. Your donations go directly towards funding this once in a lifetime experience. 

This past month, while my peers and I hosted the Texas United Nations International Youth Day (see picture), we learned from Kushal Ramyad, a high-level director at the UN, that there has never been a Texas group to attend the UN General Assembly. We decided to change that. In light of this, we are spearheading efforts to take 18 teens to the 2025 UN General Assembly in NYC, September 23rd-26th—the first-ever Texan youth delegation!

 

⭐️Extra funds will be donated to others who are attending the same trip. 

During this time, we will be holding exclusive meetings, engaging with global leaders, and becoming accredited official UN Delegates.

Global political issues today are the ones we will inherit, and they inform how we view the world. In line with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, we will be providing youth perspectives on themes such as sustainable energy, accessible technology, and cultural understanding. In addition, this group directly aligns with the U.S. Mission’s initiative to bring youth voices and engagement into the United Nations.

In order to be able to participate in this once in a lifetime opportunity, I am asking for donations!
