Leland is a 15-year-old student who has been selected to take part in a 13-day educational history trip to Europe. This incredible opportunity will allow him to walk through historically significant sites from the First World War—places that symbolize freedom, courage, and peace—while gaining a deeper understanding of Canada’s role in global history.

Beyond the classroom, this trip will help Leland develop independence, leadership, and confidence, while building lifelong friendships and memories with his peers. Experiences like this shape young minds and inspire a deeper appreciation for learning and global citizenship.

This trip is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but it comes with significant costs. Leland is a kind, intelligent, and hardworking young man who is doing his part by taking on side jobs to contribute toward the expense. We are reaching out to our community for additional support to help make this experience possible.

Any contribution, big or small, would mean the world to Leland and help him reach an important educational milestone. Thank you for supporting his journey and investing in a bright young future.
