Help Support Janet's Educational Journey to South Africa

Click here to see how it all began: The Day I Was Accepted Into the Veritas Program!

Hello, my name is Janet King, and I am a rising sophomore at Kulima Montessori School in Fayetteville, GA. I am thrilled to share that I have been accepted into the prestigious Veritas School of Social Sciences after a highly competitive application process. As part of the Veritas Debate Institute, I will be taking college-level courses in philosophy, political science, and sociology. The program also includes an international summer debate camp at Harvard University. Recently, I received the incredible honor of being selected to participate in an educational and cultural exchange program in South Africa.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that will allow me to further my passion for social justice, human rights, and global democracy. However, I need your support to make this dream a reality. The program costs $8,000, which includes travel, accommodations, and program fees. I am seeking support from generous individuals and organizations to help cover these expenses.

Your support will not only make this transformative trip possible but also inspire me to continue advocating for these values as I move forward in my education and future career. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings me closer to achieving my goal.

During the exchange program, I will have the chance to:

Engage with local high school students

Visit the Apartheid Museum

Tour Soweto and visit a local school (pending confirmation)

Explore Constitution Hill

Visit the Nelson Mandela Center of Memory

Experience Kruger National Park

Table Mountain

Walk through Cape Town and visit Green Market Square

Mandela Statue

Shangaan Cultural Village

Visit the District Six Museum

Attend a workshop at The Institute for Justice and Reconciliation

Tour Robben Island

Tour the !Khwa ttu San Village

And much more...

This program will not only enhance my academic and personal growth but also allow me to bring back valuable insights and experiences to my community. I am passionate about making a positive impact in the world, and this exchange program is a crucial step in my journey.

If you would like to help, donations can be made on this platform, through Cash App, and Zelle (details pictured below). Feel free to contact my parents directly for more details or questions regarding my journey or your donation. I would be deeply grateful for your support in making this incredible journey possible.

Thank you for your generosity and for believing in my potential to make a difference.

Warm regards,
