Viviana's Shot: Studying in Denmark

Donation protected
My name is Viviana Perez.  Currently, I am a sophomore in high school in Los Angeles.  I am asking you to help me fund my Rotary Student Exchange year in Denmark.  I will be living with Rotary host families and speaking Danish.  I will be learning in and learning about one of the best public school systems in the world.  

And... Did you know that Denmark was ranked #1 on the World Happiness Index?  (USA is 13th.) 

Given our political climate (and as a young woman of Mexcian-American heritage), I take very seriously this opportunity to be an ambassador for the youth of Los Angeles and the USA.  I am a strong student and I believe that this experience will give me the insight to make a difference to the future.

When I was in 5th grade I did a country report on Norway.  Funny, but it was actually a seed so inspirational that it grew into a full-on dream to experience Scandanavia.  Since my mom had been an exchange student when she was in high school, I was aware that my dream could become a reality - and I did the work to make it happen.  Now we just need to fund it!

Any amount is appreciated!  Your generous donations will help to pay for:
My Rotary fee = $5250.
A tour with other exchange students = $2500.
Some warm clothes and shoes!  :)

This trip means so much to me, and I am so grateful for your consideration.  Please take advantage of the rewards I am offering.  I would love to share my experiences with you!

This may be a stretch, but Alexander Hamiliton's community helped give him a shot at a better future.  Please help me make my dream come true.  My payments are due at the end of March.
