We need your help

My name is Isabella, and my leadership class was invited to attend the Discover DC program in Washington DC.  We have 15 leadership students that are eligible to attend the Discover DC program but cannot afford the costs.

That's where you come in. Every contribution puts us closer to our goal, and even after we reach our goal, the more donations we receive the more students will be able to participate and experience this exciting trip.

This trip is about more than just history, it's about the unique learning experience that we'll share as leadership students. We're the future and the better prepared and knowledgeable we are, the better the future wil be for all of us.

How you can help

First, please contribute whatever you can afford. Because every little bit counts you should not worry if you can't afford a financial contribution. There are other ways you can help. For example, you can share this page and video  on your Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus or any other social media you might be connected with. That would be a tremendous help. Spreading the word is exciting and rewarding for us. And please ask your friends to share this story as well.

Each student costs about $2,200 to $2,900 depending on final costs and fees which are determined closer to the trip date (March, 2013).  This is why even after we reach our first goal, which will pay for just one student, we're still fundraising!  So if you, or someone you know has a large company that would like to help a group of students realize a dream, this is a good place to send them.  

Preparing future leaders

One of our nation's founding principles is the power of the people, which is declared in the first three words of the Constitution, “We the people …”. It is with this principle in mind that we reach out to you to help us prove that the people still hold the power. We're faced with the fact that not all of us can afford the cost of this trip and we're not going to let that stop us. That's why we need your help.

About the Perks (rewards)

On the right sidebar of this page you'll see that we've created a few "perks" to help you determine what level of contribution you'd like to make. Please note that you do not have to claim a perk in order to contribute. Just click the "contribute now" button below and follow the instructions. But if you'd like to claim a perk please share that experience with your friends.  

Remember that the biggest reward is that you'll be helping to shape the minds of tomorrow's leaders.

Special Note from Isabella

I want to thank everyone who visits and shares this page because just by reading our story makes a difference. And if you take the time to share this fundraiser with your friends and on social media, know that you've made a positive impact on the future leaders of the world.

Mahalo (thank you) and Aloha
