International studies tour

Hello my name is Elijah Andrade. I am 17 years old and attendIng California School for the Deaf of Riverside.  I am a hard working academic achiever and I have been maintaining a nearly 4.0 gpa through my high school years. I am a member of ASBG.
In Jan of 2019, we, the ASBG, want to achieve an international educational studies trip in Thailand. The goal is to support and educate Thai Deaf people that specializes American Sign Language.

Anyhow, due to my parents’ financial issues, due to not enough of working hours, I will need the support from community in order to accomplish my dream of enriching my knowledge and my skills via seeing and understanding other parts of the world.
So I'm reaching out to my family, friends, academic scholars any kind of sponsors who understand that hard working academic achievers deserve to pursue improving the world’s needs. Money should never be the reason anyone shall be held back from seizing an opportunity of experiencing  an excellent program.
*UPDATE* As far as financial issue,  I have secured my passport, airline tickets and everything! As of this date and final 30 days, I only need to raise $1500 to cover 2 weeks of Hotel stay and meals! This tour is hosted by hands on travel agency: https://www.handson.travel/tours/csdr-thailand-2019/

Thank you for your support and looking forward to traveling to Thailand.
Sincerely Elijah Andrade.
