Campaign Story
I am looking for your support to fund an upcoming trip to Ghana with the Global Volunteer Network and the Help-A-School initiative. I have always been interested in working with the international community, and as soon as I discovered GVN, I applied with hopes to do my part. Only days later I was accepted into the farming program, where I will help locals maintain and care for their crops, while also helping the orphanage with daily duties in the town of Awutu Bawdwease.
Your help will be greatly appreciated as I am afraid that if I try to overcome this challenge alone, I will fail, and my trip will be cancelled. So far I have managed to save enough to pay for my placement fee to cover food and housing, which is about half the total cost, but now I would like your help in raising the money needed to pay for my air fare, insurance, visa, and other essentials.
Any help is going to be greatly appreciated, but I will try to create a rewards package for those who are able to go above and beyond.I cannot give much back, but to those that really come forward, I'm offering to put together a journal of my experiences, perhaps with pictures of the community, the people, and the country, as well as a personal thank you card signed by myself and the people I meet. It's only a small token of my gratitude of your amazing support.
Rewards
A journal which records my experiences while volunteering abroad, complete with photographs of the trip and people, and a personalized thank you card.
