Help Josie volunteer in Costa Rica

Donation protected
More about me:  
I am a senior Biology and Cognitive Science BA Candidate at Case Western Reserve University and I am currently applying to veterinary school!  I have spent the past 6 months working as a veterinary assistant at a small animal clinic.   I also study negative indicators of welfare of piranhas at Cleveland Metroparks Zoo.  In addition, I volunteer with Tails from the City Cat Shelter and Horses with Hope's therapeutic riding program for individuals with special needs! 

My volunteer abroad project:
This summer, I am volunteering with sea turtle hatchlings at Costa Rica's Sea Turtles Project through Globalteer.  By protecting turtle nests and releasing hatchlings, I will be part of a team that helps maintain populations of 4 endangered species of sea turtle!  I will be working 6 days a week for 2 weeks with a group of dedicated and passionate individuals!  Click here  for more information from Gloabalteer's website. 

Where the money goes:
This money will be going towards the volunteer placement fee (which includes accommodations in a shared dormitory and meals), airfare, travel to and from the project, passport and visa fees, and necessary vaccinations.

Any little bit helps and I truly appreciate your support! Thank you so much! :)
