Help Ryan travel to the D-Day Memorial

Hi,

Ryan is a student at Jefferson High School and member of the Jefferson Dragon Regiment marching band. Their school has an incredible opportunity to take part in the memorial events surrounding the annual gathering to remember the sacrifice that allied forces gave during the D-Day invasion. They will be traveling to Normandy, France in June of 2022 to take part in activities there and perform for those in attendance.

This opportunity is not without financial cost, though. Each student participating must pay their own way to participate. At this time the estimated costs for the trip is $3500 per student, which provides airfare, food, lodging, shipping of instruments and other travel expenses.

While both Ryan is taking advantage of opportunities to work and raise funds, they are a full time high school student with much of their after-school time devoted to band practice and homework. They would appreciate any donations that you could contribute to help them make this trip and participate in this once in a lifetime opportunity to perform before world leaders and honor our fallen.
