My Travel Story

My name is Makayla Williams, and I am a sophomore Business major at North Carolina A&T State University. I am honored to have been selected, along with 24 other students in the Willie A. Deese College of Business and Economics, to study abroad in Costa Rica during Spring Break.

This experience will allow me to immerse myself in a new culture while gaining insight into international business practices, an opportunity that will greatly enrich my education and future career.

The total cost of the trip is $4,600, and I was blessed to receive a $1,500 scholarship for maintaining a 3.0 GPA or higher. This leaves me with a remaining balance of $3,100, due by January 15th.

It would mean the world to me if you would consider supporting me with a donation of any amount to help make this dream a reality. If you are unable to give financially, I kindly ask for your prayers for me and my classmates as we prepare to travel.
