Hello, 
This GoFundMe is being used for Grafton DECA as our Chapter seeks to raise money for our upcoming trip to the International Career Development Conference (ICDC) in Orlando, Florida! The DECA organization prepares future leaders in various business areas such as Marketing, Finance, and Entrepreneurship. From March 12th-14th, Grafton DECA attended the State Competition in Boston, Massachusetts. We are proud to announce that 11 of our members have earned the opportunity to attend ICDC.  Competition was fierce with 62 school districts in attendance and approximately 2500 students participating. We ask that you donate as you can, this donation will be greatly appreciated. The cost per student to attend ICDC is approximately $1,300.00. Your donation will help defray the cost of meals, as well recoup the cost of travel and lodging for myself and my fellow members. Donate today to help these business students achieve greatness as they compete and learn at ICDC!
