Sponsor a Future Leader

Donation protected
This summer, Harlan has been selected to represent Egyptian Electric Cooperative on the Youth to Washington Tour, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for outstanding students to experience leadership, democracy, and history firsthand in our nation’s capital.

The trip itself is fully funded (thank you, EECA!), covering travel, lodging, and meals — but we would love to send him with a little spending money to make the most of his adventure!

Every contribution will help him with:

Small souvenirs to remember this incredible week

Extra snacks or meals during full days of sightseeing

Metro rides and museum stops

Special experiences and keepsakes he’ll treasure forever

By donating, you’re not just helping fund a trip — you’re sponsoring a future leader as he learns about cooperation, citizenship, and service at the heart of American democracy.

Sponsorship Levels:

$10 — Civic Supporter: Grab a snack or souvenir on the National Mall!

$20 — History Buff: Help fund a keepsake from the Smithsonian.

$30 — Delegate’s Lunch Sponsor: Treat him to lunch in D.C.!

$50 — Monument Explorer: Cover an extra experience like a guided tour or night monument walk.

$75 — Capital Experience Booster: Help make a big memory happen!

$100+ — Founding Friend: Major support for a major week!

Any amount helps and every donor will get a special thank-you update during or after his trip!

We can't wait to watch Harlan represent our community with pride.

Thank you for believing in the leaders of tomorrow!
