Campaign Story
I am Deja and a sixteen year old high school student. I have worked hard to graduate high school a year early and will continue to work to get a double major at UT Austin in the next 4 years. As a graduation trip, I hope to go on a volunteer trip to Costa Rica to help care for amazing little kids for two weeks over summer. Most kids prefer to spend their vacations laying out by the pool or partying, but I believe that you can have fun and giveback to those in need.
I believe that all children deserve to be in a safe & happy environment, so I hope to be a part of that to the Costa Rican kids that I will be working with. The group that I am going with is going to run a two week summer camp for disadvantaged children. I considered countries like Ecuador & Moldova, but none of them impacted me like Costa Rica. Some of the activities that we will be doing with the children are crafting, sports and sign language. We will also be resorting the grounds by painting fences & walls and gardening, while will also learn about the culture. Any money I receive above my target amount will go straight to the kids I work with.
I know that I would not just give my money away to a stranger without more information. The website for my project is http://www.frontier-usa.org/projects/463/Costa-Rica-Community-%26-Conservation-/. If you would like to speak to me about it you can reach me at [email protected] Thank you!!
