Hello all, my name is Vianna and I am a Junior attending Branham High School.  It's always been my dream to perform in the London New Year's Parade - well...not exactly always I suppose.  My dream started when I was selected as a Drum Major for the Branham Band in my Sophomore year.  Last summer, I attended the USA San Jose State Drum Major camp where the idea of London was planted into my head.  From that moment, I began to work hard on improving all that I could as a Drum Major in order to reach my goal.  But London seemed so far away; not only was it far in distance, London also had a huge price tag on it that would put a financial burden on my already hard-working mom and dad.  That's why this summer, when I was given the huge honor of being selected as an All-American Drum Major, I was both extremely happy and extremely stressed.  What I dreamed of as a happy moment was turned into a bittersweet kind of moment due to the financial burden.  Any donation no matter how small is greatly appreciated as it would bring me one step closer to my dream, the London New Years Day Parade, as well as lessen the burden on my parents.  Thank you for taking the time to read my story and I hope you all have a wonderful day/night!
