Hello! My name is Ilyas. I am a sudent from Russia currently studying in Turkey. 

This year I was chosen from thousands of aplicants to participate in AIESEC's ''Global Mentors'' program in Croatia this summer. ''Global Mentors'' is a mentoring project that aims to help very vulnerable group in society – children without parental care.Volunteers teach children English, run interactive workshops and presentations about different topics such as importance of education, multiculturalism, local and global issues..Volunteers have personal space to discuss 1 to 1 about problems that may bother that child and provide help with everyday activities. Goal is to bring hope to children about their future.

I'm going to spend 6 weeks helping orphans overcome the hardships of life and teach them English, as well as show them positive sides of the world. 

Because of my rent, a loan and my education payments I realised that it's quite hard for me to get enough money for my trip. That's why I decided to ask for some help from you. Let's make our world a better place together. 

Thank you in advance!
