Elly is an 8th grader at Lincoln Middle School with a big dream: to travel to Tokyo, Japan, on a school trip organized by the Passport program. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her to immerse herself in Japanese culture, experience the vibrant city of Tokyo, and learn firsthand about the food, technology, and traditions she’s always admired. Elly has always been passionate about traveling and exploring new cultures, and this trip is the perfect chance for her to broaden her horizons and grow as a person.

The funds raised will help cover essential expenses like airfare, program fees, meals, and a bit of spending money so Elly can fully participate in every aspect of the trip. The first payment is due on October 28, 2025, so early support will make a huge difference in making this dream a reality. Elly is working hard to contribute as much as she can herself, but she needs a boost to meet the upcoming deadline and ensure she doesn’t miss out on this special experience.

Elly is known for her hardworking and generous spirit, her love of volleyball, and her adventurous approach to life. She’s funny, a great friend, and always eager to learn something new. Supporting Elly means helping a dedicated student take a big step toward her dreams and giving her the chance to experience a new culture in a meaningful way. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings her closer to Tokyo and the adventure of a lifetime.
