Hello all,

My name is Kate and I am a senior in high school. I am a part of the IB program, Student Council, National Honor Society, Varsity Cheer Squad, Creative Team, Musical, and community service, among many other things!

Recently, I was blessed with the opportunity to travel to Japan this summer. I've always wanted to see other parts of the world and learn about other cultures (non-virtually), and this would be an amazing experience. As a 17 year old who gives my all to school, leadership, and extracurriculars, I’ve always worked hard to take advantage of every opportunity that comes my way. However, to make this trip a reality, I need a little help. I am currently working as a lifeguard, caterer, sales associate, and babysitter, however, the cost to travel to Japan is a big hurdle and I can’t do it alone. I’m reaching out for your support. Any donation, no matter the size, gets me one step closer to making this a reality. If you need a babysitter or a lifeguard please let me know, as I am happy to work for the donations! If you can’t donate, sharing this with others would mean the world to me.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any support you can provide. Japan, I hope to see you soon!!
