Help fund my research trip in Madagascar!

Donation protected
This July I will be taking part in a educational research trip in Madagascar with Operation Wallacea, a program that has been introduced to me through my education for employment program at school. Over the course of the first week that I will be there, I have the opportunity to get a hands on experience in studying the native herpetofauna, butterflies, amphibians, birds, and lemurs, as well as learning about Malagasy culture. Throughout the second week I will be getting my open water dive certification and taking part in marine and reef ecology research. I think this will be an amazing learning opportunity and not to mention a once in a lifetime experience! I've paid for over half of the trip with money that I've earned from working summer jobs over the past three years and I am hoping to fund the rest of the trip through fundraising and grants that I have applied to. I am using Go Fund Me as one of my fundraising efforts, any support you can offer would be greatly appreciated!
