Sierra's Mizzou Winter Break Global Service Trip to Vietnam!
My Travel Story
- Providing care, educational enrichment and companionship for orphan children suffering from HIV.
- Providing support, attention and care for children who have no family or home.
- Teaching English as well as interacting and providing support/companionship for blind and intellectually disabled children.
- Teaching English, mentorship, leadership and athletic activities for poor and at-risk youth.
I've decided to reach out to others to help me with this trip because my financial aid will not cover the entire cost of the program. I have my financial aid package working towards this as well as the rest of my classes for next semester. So while the tuition for the course will be most likely be paid off through financial aid, things such as airfare and program fees are additional expenses I'll need to cover. I'm continuing to apply for scholarships outside of my university, but there is no guarantee I'll receive any aid there.
I currently work at Starbucks and have saved money away from my summer job, but I'm still a full-time student who isn't able to work as much as I'd like. I'm thankful for any sort of donation, or even simply words of encouragement, and would love to talk to you more about the trip and all I hope to accomplish while I'm there.
I'm so happy to begin this next adventure, and I'm grateful for your help to get me there. Thank you!
