Send Carolynn to HOBY WLC

Who am I? - Hello! I'm Carolynn Ritter and I'm currently a sophomore in High School. I'm the Student Government President of my school for the Class of 2019. I am also a member of Drama Club, different athletics, and very active in the Girl Scouts, which allows me to engage in community service projects.

My Mission - Over the weekend of June 9-11th I was lucky enough to be one of two students chosen to represent my school at HOBY Delaware. This stands for Hugh O'Brian's Youth Leadership Seminar. During this seminar I learned how to become a better leader and how to show leadership skills within large groups and in society. After attending HOBY DE, I decided I wanted to take it to a global level and attend WLC, which stands for the World Leadership Congress. WLC is a 7-day seminar that is held in Chicago IL. It goes in depth of how to become a better leader, and how to bring projects and programs back to your local community. I believe attending WLC will be an outstanding opportunity for me and the community I live in. 

My Goal - The fee to attend WLC is $1,825, which does not include my airfare. For this I need your help! Donations of any amount will help send me to Chicago to participate in a global discussion on how to make our futures a brighter place. Your contribution enables me to expand my views and help inspire my local community. Through this experience I will better be able to contribute leadership skills to my school, community service projects and ideas  to our community and so much more. 

Thank you!
