hey everyone!

it’s that time again, there’s another fundraising deadline approaching quick. thank you to everyone who contributed to my first $5,000 that allowed me to make it to training camp! having so many supporters is such a blessing and it means the world to me that so many of you feel called to help me with this trip. 

that being said, in order for me to launch on september 8th from atlanta, i have to have $10,000 raised. right now i am a bit over $6,000. what’s my plan for getting to the deadline? drumroll please…

ADOPT A BOX!! adopt a box is a really cool concept where each square in the poster below has a number and it equals the amount you desire to donate. for example, box #20 is $20. big donations are wonderful, but if you cannot afford that don’t forget that every bit counts; the boxes are only numbered 1-100. if all of the boxes on my poster get “adopted” it will add up to $5,050!!! isn’t that insane?! i was impressed at least… that alone will get me to my deadline! 

if you choose to send in a check, they must be sent in before AUGUST 11th.

if you donate online, they must be submitted before AUGUST 22nd.

this is because of the length of time it takes to process all of the payments. there are real people in offices submitting each donation for all 275 gap year participants so please respect these deadlines. 

once again, thank you so so much for everyone who got me where i am now. i am extreme grateful for your support.
