I am a recent college graduate ans I have an amazing opportunity to go to Bogota Colombia with Internships Colombia - Corporación Busco Talentos. The funds will help me in achieving my goals of contributing to social change in Colombia, specifically in the capital city which is in strong need of English teachers!My goals is to travel abroad to gain valuable experienced that will help out with the various social, economic, disparities that people Colombia need. Not only will these funds help me  gain experience in Colombia they will also help me  to give back to my community that is in need as well. My plan is to learn their language in order to effectively communicate with their community as well. Thanks for all of your help and support!! I chose Colombia because of their past experience with drug cartels that ravaged their communities. They have now eradicated them showing their perseverance while overcoming such an experience that many inner cities in American cannot or have not achieved.
