Hi, my name is John; I'm a senior in high school and have recently received a scholarship to attend World Class Kiteboarding Academy. World Class Kite Academy is traveling private high school that will be visiting Cape Town, South Africa and Sardina, Italy, for the spring semester. Kiteboarding is my passion, and this is an incredible opportunity to travel the world, experience different cultures, kiteboard in some of the most epic conditions on the planet, while finishing my high school education. Even with the scholarship I received, I still need to raise $15,000 for tuition, travel and other expenses along the way. This is an opportunity of a lifetime, and any donation will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for helping me achieve my dreams.
