Hello family, friends, and friends of friends and family! My name is Jessica Melancon and I am raising money to participate in a summer study abroad program. I've been given a once in a lifetime opportunity to travel to Vienna, Austria with my Music History Professor and 11 colleagues to study some of the pinnacle points throughout music history. This is currently my third year as a Vocal Performance and Music Education Double Major at Texas A&M University- Kingsville. Music has and will always be my greatest passion in life, and this program has amazing potential to further my aspirations and expand my hopes and dreams of becoming a professional vocal performer and educator. 
"This global capital of arts and music awaits with its characteristic charm, exciting events, and a fascinating blend of modernity and tradition" and I couldn't be more excited to immerse myself in all aspects of Viennese culture.
Any contribution, no matter how small... or obscenely gigantic is more than welcomed.
