SHORT SUMMARY

Howdy! I’m Thomas. I’m looking to raise money for a People to People Student Ambassador trip this coming summer. I will be traveling to England, Wales, Ireland and France. I will meet many important people and hit so many extraordinary places; visit The Louvre, meet the Prime Minister of England and even visit Beach of Normandy to pay respects to those who died. I will even help a small village of people in Ireland to build thatched roofs and much more! I’ve always been interested in giving back to others and offering up a great deal of myself in the same way; I am a dog therapy team, I have a photography website (http://www.crestedgeckoexposures.com) and play many musical instruments including the piano, bass clarinet, accordion, b-flat clarinet and many others. I’m also in four different choirs including a church choir and have a leadership role in all of them. Your contribution will help me achieve an opportunity to give back to others, represent our country and see the world in a new perspective I’ve never seen before.

 

WHAT WE NEED & WHAT YOU GET

I’m looking to raise $1500 for this trip of a lifetime. The money will help to pay the remaining balance for housing, airfare, food and miscellaneous travel expenses. Each contribution will bring us closer to my goal and offer up some custom photography paraphernalia, signed and limited edition photography prints, YouTube special musical “shout out” for your help from Thomas and dog training lessons from “Thomas the dog whisper”. If the goal isn’t reached any of the earnings will still help support my quest to Europe in July 2013.

 

THE IMPACT

Sharpening the minds of young talented kids like me will only help create future leaders of America. This is an investment into future generations! This is an investment in the good ol’ USA. This program was founded in 1956 by President Eisenhower to create a cultural exchange program between countries. Both Eisenhower and Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev expressed enthusiasm for exchange programs as a means to ease Cold War tensions. To this day the program has offered only a few hundred students a year the opportunity to travel abroad.

 

OTHER WAYS YOU CAN HELP

Please help me create some NOISE about this opportunity and give back to a talented kid looking to do more for our country not only today yet, in years to come. Spread the word, share the URL, tweet away and FB your pals. Use the Indiegogo share tools to support this quest on various social media platforms. Most of all…Thank you for taking the time to support young talent in seeing the world in incredible ways.
