Invest in Auria’s Global Education in Brazil

Hi! My name is Auria Perry, a Business Information Technology student with a minor in Sales at North Carolina A&T State University. This May, I’ve been given the life-changing opportunity to travel to São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil through a global studies course focused on international business and entrepreneurship—particularly within the coffee industry, one of Brazil’s most influential exports.

During this program, I’ll tour global companies like John Deere, participate in service-learning projects, and visit a Brazilian coffee farm to study the global coffee supply chain. I’ll also engage in cultural experiences at the Afro Brazil Museum and meet with business leaders across technology and energy sectors.

This experience aligns with my career aspirations of working in tech and finance as an account executive, using B2B sales to drive innovation and connection across global markets. It will allow me to develop international insight and bring back valuable knowledge to apply in both my community and future business endeavors.

I leave for Brazil on May 10th, and I’m fundraising to help cover the remaining costs of this transformational experience.

If you believe in equipping young leaders to make global impact—please consider donating or sharing this campaign. Every contribution helps me get one step closer to this incredible opportunity.
