Hi Everyone,

My name is Olivia Mendoza, I am 13 years old and attend Bayside STEM Academy in San Mateo, CA.

I have been invited by the People to People Student Ambassador Program to go on a 17 day trip to China next summer (June/July 2015).  I have gone through my interview process and was accepted!   I, along with approximately 40 other students from the Bay Area will be able to explore the Great Wall of China and Beyond.

The goal of this trip and serving as an ambassador is to broaden my perspective of the world we live in today and experience the various cultural differences that other countries have. 

With your support, whether it be small or large, will help me achieve my fundraising goal to afford me this great opportunity.  Thank you for your time and consideration.  I greatly appreciate it.  

Please check back now and then to my page.  I will be posting updates to what other things I will be doing (scholarship contest and fundraiser)as time gets closer to my trip.  

Here are a few links for more informaiton about the People to People  Ambassador Program as well as more information about my trip.
