Ireland Trip for the Yeats Summer School

Donation protected
Hello all! My name is Rebekah and I am a full-time college student at the beautiful Schreiner University in Kerrville, TX. I am an English major who has a passion for literature, poetry, reading, and writing.


My school has presented me an awesome opportunity to enroll in a class to travel to Ireland and attend the 60th Yeats International Summer School in Sligo, Ireland (ENGL 3370: Yeats in Ireland). This would not only be an incredible opportunity in regard to travel, but also for my academic career. This would give me a chance to learn more about the poet as well as to make connections with other passionate English majors and scholars. This cost for this is $2,900 and the final deposit is due on May 1st, 2019.

I am currently enrolled in the Spring semester course here on campus to develop my knowledge on W.B. Yeats and I am also working 5 different jobs to try and raise funds on my own. However, as a full-time college student, this is a daunting task. I have budgeted the cost of the trip with my financial abilities, and it will be nearly impossible to do on my own in the next three months. A lesson I have been learning is to ask for help when I need it, so here it is.

The full cost of the trip is being asked for on this page ($2,900) and I am grateful for whatever people are willing to give. Thank you to everyone for being willing to help me raise the funds for this trip alongside me. I will continue to work to raise what I need on my own, but I am so, so grateful for whoever is willing to help.

All of the donations raised will go directly to Schreiner University for the trip to cover the 3-credit course tuition (through Schreiner University), travel, lodging, tuition fees for the 60th Yeats International Summer School, and some meals and activities.

Thank you for your time and your donations!  If you are unable to donate, thank you for reading and I ask for you to pray for me as I prepare for this trip and ask God for peace as I work in and out of school to raise money for this opportunity to progress my education (even if you do decide to donate, thank you and please keep me in your prayers!).

God bless and thank you,

Rebekah Newell.
