My Travel Story

by: Raina McGillicuddy Start Date: Mar 26, 2024 - End Date: Sep 25, 2024
Hey everyone,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Raina McGillicuddy, and I'm a 16-year-old girl with a passion for helping others. I come from a mixed-race background and have been fortunate enough to have my loving grandparents take me in. However, like many families, we face financial challenges, and unfortunately, they aren't able to provide the means for me to pursue my dream of volunteering abroad.

I've always believed that everyone deserves a chance at a better life, regardless of their circumstances. That's why I've decided to volunteer in Costa Rica to support lower-income communities. Costa Rica is a beautiful country filled with diverse cultures and landscapes, but like any other place, it has its share of challenges, especially for those living in poverty.

During my time in Costa Rica, I'll be working with local organizations to provide essential services, education, and support to families and individuals who need it most. From building homes and schools to teaching English and promoting sustainable practices, every little effort counts towards making a significant impact on these communities.

However, I can't do this alone. I'm reaching out to you all today to ask for your support in making this journey possible. Your donations will go towards covering travel expenses, accommodation, and the resources needed to carry out meaningful projects in Costa Rica.

Your contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a difference in the lives of those we aim to help. Together, we can empower communities, inspire change, and create a brighter future for everyone involved.

If you're unable to donate, I completely understand. Your moral support and sharing of this message are equally valuable in spreading awareness about this cause.

With gratitude and hope,

Raina
