Suzette Turns 50! Italy B-day Trip
Donation protected
First off, this is not a way of asking anyone to pay for my Mom's birthday trip. That is already done. Plane tickets have been bought, accomodations booked, Passport aquired. This is happening!
Backstory:
My mother has taken care of others since the day she gave birth to me at 16-years-old. Literally. She has raised 4 children and is doing it all over again with her 13-year-old Stepdaughter and two young Grandsons. Putting herself first means getting a manicure once a year or splurging at her favorite Mexican restaurant on occassion.
Meanwhile, I have been to 15 countries and enjoyed countless adventures. None would have been possible if she hadn't dedicated her life to encouraging and empowering me every step of the way.
I think that her 50th Birthday is the perfect time to send her on an adventure of her own. Don't you?
It has been a dream of mine for years now to expose my Mom to another country and culture and it's finally happening. Suzette will be turning 50 in Italy! As I mentioned above, the trip is paid for. This page is to give people the option to give her a Birthday Gift in the form of a donation so that she can make the most of this her very first International Trip.
If you were going to spend $20 on flowers, $100 on a Spa Day or $5 on a snazzy Key Chain, just click the 'Donate' button and save yourself a trip to the store. It'd be very much appreciated.
If my mother has:
- Babysat your children
- Cooked you a meal
- Prayed with you
- Lent you a shoulder to cry on
- Gave you a ride when your car was broke down
- Put a roof over your head when you needed it
- Participated your kids' fundraiser
- Supported your Tupperware Party, Mary Kay, etc.
ventures
-Made you laugh
- Encouraged you
You get the idea. My mom is awesome and has went above and beyond for so many. If she considers you a friend or loved one then there is no limit to her graciousness and genorosity.
We leave on October 28 (my birhtday!) and return on November 7 with a brief layover in Paris. Suzette's 50th birthday is on November 2nd and we willl be celebrating in Florence.
All money donated will go towards excursiouns (museum visits, walking tours, dinners, etc.), shopping & souveniers, and all around revelry. I feel as if $1,200 is an attainable goal. However, the more money raised the more my mom can indulge.
Your donation would be her Birthday Gift and a much appreciated one.
If anyone knows my mom, then you know that no one deserves this trip more than she does. I have saved for a long time to make this dream become a reality and any donations would only add to this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
