My Travel Story

Hey Everyone,
Recently I just have been accepted into a program called CIEE. This is a program that offers a  study abroad program over the summer. The program I chose was studying the Italian language and culture in Italy for a month. This is an incredible opportunity for me because I want to expand my knowledge of learning a new language and a new culture. So I decided to sign up for CIEE to study Italian. Studying Italian will be an amazing learning opportunity for me because not only will I get to understand the language better when I am surrounded by people who speak Italian, I will also be influenced by the culture and the history of Italy. I have always been interested in learning a new language and culture because I think it is a better way of understanding people from all parts of the world and their perspective in how they live. It can also give me another way to interact with people more. I was able to get a scholarship that was able to cover most of the program cost, but I still have to pay the remaining amount, which is $1,260 and the amount is due by February 21,2017. I also have to pay for the airfare to go to Italy myself. Unfortunately I am unable to pay that amount myself. I decided to create a gofundme page that would help me fundraise the money I need in order to go to Italy. So I'm asking if you would please help donate and give me the opportunity to go study Italian in Italy for the summer.  Every amount counts and please help share this page with any friends or families if possible. Thank you so much for your support.
