Dear family and friends,

I just spent 2 weeks at the Mariposa Foundation in the Dominican Republic where I worked with girls from the ages of 7-16 years old. The mission of the Mariposa Foundation is to close the gap on generational poverty through education and empowerment. I am so grateful for spending time with these girls. My time with them was both emotionally challenging and rewarding. I realized that I want to do whatever I can to help keep girls as safe as possible in the Dominican Republic and while I am physically away, I'd like to donate money to the foundation. My long term goals are to continue to help others in the same way. Can you please consider donating to this fund? Please no pressure at all.

Best and lots of love,

Julia Ava Dalal
