My son recently decided to change the trajectory of his life and join the Navy. He graduates from bootcamp on September 25. I would like to attend his graduation. I am living on social security now and don't have the funds for this trip. I feel its very important that I go to show my son that I support this very important step he has taken to re-form his life's goals. He plans to go into the Navy air corps.

The money will pay for gas and tolls from Fitchburg, Mass to Great Lakes, Illinois and back. It will also cover 3 nights in a hotel so I may attend graduation and then spend some time with my son before he goes off to his "A" school.

Any amount will help and I appreciate it greatly. I don't like asking for help this way but I really want to be there to support my son's achievement. Thank you so much.
