Grace's Volunteer Trip

I'm a 17 year old high school student with dreams of volunteering abroad in Costa Rica during the summer of 2015! I'm raising money to fund the two week program. If I succeed, during the trip I will have the amazing oppurtunity to stay in a country with a beautiful ecosystem. I'll be able to prevent contaminants from entering the ocean by building filter systems, clean up beaches around Whale Bay, volunteer at different sites, play with local children, and support ongoing community projects.
     The trip is through GLA- check out the site here!http://www.experiencegla.com/. GLA has been recognized by President Obama and has completely admirable values as an organization.
     Total cost of the trip is $4500, but I am only asking for donations of $4000 and I will contribute the rest from my own savings and my part-time job.
Every donation counts- thanks so much!
