My Travel Story

by: Edith Tenesaca-Mejia Start Date: Oct 28, 2025 - End Date: Feb 27, 2026
Studying abroad at Lorenzo de’ Medici in Florence, Italy is more than a dream.It is a stepping stone toward becoming a global fashion leader who blends creativity, culture, and purpose. As a Fashion and Textile Management student at NC State, this experience will allow me to study where fashion history began and learn sustainable, ethical practices that I can bring back to inspire future designers and my campus community.

Your support isn’t just funding a trip it’s fueling education, leadership, and the power to create meaningful change. By learning from Italy’s artisans and innovators, I’ll gain hands-on experience that will help me mentor others, promote sustainability in fashion, and empower diverse voices in the industry.

With your help, I can turn this opportunity into something greater than myself an experience that strengthens not only my future but the future of fashion.
