Sorry I have been gone for so long. I am trying to finish things up as a student at Davidson College (GO
WILDCATS!) and also processing the huge leap of faith I am about to take. I admit, they've both kept me locked in my own head a little bit. I want to start this post by saying THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! The support I have already received has been overwhelming! Many of you have taken the time to reach out and get to know me, ask me the questions that need to be asked, and commit to following me throughout my program next year. I cannot begin to express how thankful I am for all the love and kindness you have all shown me.
For those of you who don't know what program I am referring to, I am going on this program called the World Race. The World Race is an 11 month mission trip where I will travel to 11 countries doing service work.
I need to fundraise a total of $15,500 to go on the trip. My first deadline is just around the corner on JUNE 1st, and I need to have $3,500 in my account by then. Because of your generosity, I only need $2,075 more to meet that first deadline. So please if you can, help support my trip. Any size donation is MUCH appreciated and gets me one step closer to helping serve both our local and global community.
Below I’ve answered some questions that have come up along the way. Hope this clarifies things a bit:
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
1.When are you leaving?
A: This September, the official date is not locked in yet
2. Who sponsors the program?
A: Adventures in Missions [AIM]. AIM is a Christian mission trip program that sends people of all ages, from children to adults and families on mission trips around the world. Please feel free to check out their website for more information. http://adventures.org/
3. How can I donate? A: I openly admit this part is a little tricky, there are a lot of options so that you can choose which way is easiest for you. Look at the headings to see which payment best fits the way you would like to donate:
Monthly Sponsor, Automatic Withdraw From Your Bank Account:
IMPORTANT NOTE: I have to have my whole trip paid for by the 6 month I am on the trip….this means if you want to support me monthly, make sure you only do it until the month of February because after then the money no longer goes to me (EX: if you wanted to commit to supporting me starting this month, then you should only make a maximum of a 9 month commitment)
