Hello! My name is Josiah and I'm raising money to go to Disney World in Orlando, FL with the Glenbard East Fine Arts Program.

I have been dreaming of this trip since I was in 4th grade when my mom told me if I learned an instrument and stuck with it, I'd get to go to Disney in High School. Getting through middle school playing trombone over Zoom was tough. But every time I wanted to quit, I told myself "If you just stick it out, you'll get to go to Disney."

And I did.

Not only did I stick it out, I learned to love playing trombone and expanded my love of music to singing as well. I am heavily involved in several areas of the fine arts department at Glenbard East and I am so excited to go perform with several musical groups in the most magical place on earth.

Your support would mean the world to me. I am doing my best to work and earn the money to go on this trip, but I'm really hoping to fill in any gaps through fundraising. Every little amount helps. I will use any money raised for the cost of this trip - lodging, travel, park tickets, food, etc. Even if you are unable to donate, I appreciate your support by reading this and considering a donation.

Thank you in advance! I am grateful for any money raised and all the support I have received on my musical journey thus far - monetary or otherwise.

**If you would prefer to bypass processing fees and know my family personally, my mom can accept Zelle donations on my behalf. Please mention my name and "Disney" in the note.
