Shelby Grace's Leadership Conference Adventure

Dear Family, Friends, and Gracious Supporters,

I’ve been invited on a trip and I was hoping you all could help me! This coming fall I'm going with some students from my school to a leadership conference in Budapest, Hungary. This leadership conference will teach me valuable leadership skills, expand my knowledge of cultures, allow me to experience historical sites in Europe, and give me other perspectives. I'm thrilled about this opportunity.

I will be visiting Madrid, Vienna and Bratislava, as well. I've been selected with a small group of students to take part in this amazing opportunity. If you can help in any way, that would be great! In addition to this fundraiser I want to invite you all to come watch an original musical that I was a part of and that we put on at my school and have recorded. I will be making some snacks and hope to also sell some items from Ecuador like leather purses/wallets and some alpaca blankets. These are some ways God has given me to help pay for this great adventure. More information will come out soon about this event. If you are interested in buying any Ecuadorian items or coming to watch the play, please contact me through GoFundMe.

The funds will be used to help me pay for the registration fee, airfare, and other costs. The total cost of the trip is about $2800, and every little bit counts. This is where you can help me. Please prayerfully consider donating.

The leadership skills I will be developing at the conference will help me to lead in the future; the Praise Crew I hope to start, and hopefully, starting to help teachers with Spiritual Emphasis Week. I am also included in a discipleship program called Vanguard at my school. As I grow in the kingdom of God, leadership skills are so important for me to develop.

Even a very small donation goes a long way in helping me get to Europe. As always, thank you for supporting my family and I in all that God has called us to do.

Lots of love,

Shelby Grace Pinho
