My Travel Story

by: Matthew Brinsfield Start Date: Nov 18, 2016 - End Date: Jan 19, 2017
My name is Lauren Brinsfield, I'm 13 years old, and in the 7th grade at Eudora Elementary School. I love reading and spending time with my family and friends. My favorite subjects at school are math and science, and I plan to study marine science after I graduate high school.

Every 2 years, students from Eudora Middle School have the opportunity to travel to Washington DC to learn more about our nation's capital and visit some of it's most popular attractions, such as the White House, Arlington Cemetery, the Presidential Memorials, Capitol Hill, the National Archives and the war memorials for WWII, Vietnam, and Korea. I plan to join the group traveling to Washington DC in May 2017, and I’m excited about this wonderful opportunity.

This funding page is just one of the ways I am raising money for my trip. I also am offering products and services, such as food jarsleaf raking, babysitting and a variety of other projects and events to take place in the future. Please feel free to donate directly to this page or click on the links so you can find out how to get involved in other ways.

My goal is to raise $1600.00 in total even though I am only putting a goal of $600.00 on this site. I would like to thank everyone who has contributed so far to my campaign, as the first round of jar sales was a great start. I feel confident that I will be able to raise all the required funds, and I thank you again for your support.
