So if this is forwarded to you, it may be from one of them, and I may not know you personally, but I appreciate you taking the time to read this and if you feel so inclined to help me, then bless you.
I am writing to you because I am thrilled to update you on the most recent developments in my life. I was recently recommended and accepted to participate as a student leader in the People to People Student Ambassador Program. I will be going to Europe in the summer of 2010. This 14-day exchange consists of meetings with government officials, interaction with other high school students, visits to historical and cultural places, educational activities, and the ability to see different cultures and people in their natural habitat.
In case you haven’t heard of People to People, President Dwight D. Eisenhower founded People to People in 1956. He believed that if people from different cultures could come together in peace and friendship, so eventually would nations. The People to People Ambassador Program offers unique travel opportunities for personal and professional growth and continuing education. This organization has been the most recognized and respected educational travel provider for over 50 years. They offer hands-on, fun-filled programs that feature unparalleled access to extraordinary people and places, without which a majority of the students would have never had access.
People to People Ambassadors candidates are carefully interviewed and evaluated before their acceptance into the program, and I am honored to have been selected. I am extremely proud to be representing Manhattan Christian School as an Ambassador to the world. I am looking forward to sharing my experience from beginning to end with my peers, family, and friends. As an Ambassador, I can earn high school and college credit because of the many educational elements in my program. This educational experience will increase my understanding of the world and give me the opportunity to learn firsthand about new places and cultures. Such knowledge will help me become the best citizen I can be.
I am currently asking my family and friends for financial sponsorship to help me with tuition and expenses, and I hope I can count on your support. The program tuition and expenses amount that I need to raise is $7500; this includes meals, transportation, accommodations, and educational activities. I am asking people to donate to help me reach my goal. Is it possible for you to assist me by making a contribution? I have started a blog and this special page on Facebook to document my highlights and to keep everyone informed as to my progress throughout this adventure. I plan to share my experience with friends and family when I return by presenting my journal and photographs.
To make a contribution there are several ways that you can do that. Please contact me, or my mom Cheri, and we can get you the information. Our contact info is listed below. Your generous contribution will enable me to share in this wonderful opportunity. Thank you in advance for your gracious consideration and support.
Come see us on April 24th at the Amsterdam Fire Department Building for All-You-Can-Eat Spaghetti Dinner & Silent Auction from 5 - 8. Also, we are doing a raffle for a 1/2 of Beef or a Whole Pig with the drawing on May 16, 2010. Tickets are $5 each or 3/$12. Need not be present to win. We also have Butter Braids in 7 different varieties for $12 each. Both are available by contacting us or at the dinner/auction. Hope to see you all.
Walking in Faith,
