Travel With Purpose, Inc.

Hi everyone,

It's been a while since I fundraised for Travel With Purpose. As many of you know, this passion project started 10 years ago when I did a campaign to help young girls survivors of sex trafficking in the Philippines and Cambodia. Today, I'm coming to you to ask for your help on an issue that's deeply personal to me. My maternal grandparents fled Palestine in 1948 due to the war and took refuge in Colombia. They survived the first Nakba (the Catastrophe) but were forever displaced...they were never able to go back to Bethlehem where for generations upon generations they lived, loved and thrived.

We have been utterly devastated the last several months as we continuously watch a genocide being carried out right in front of us, with our tax dollars. I have been protesting, boycotting and working diligently to find ways to do more for our people in Gaza...so here I am.

Through my NGO, Travel With Purpose, we will be doing a campaign for displaced Palestinian children in Egypt through the Healing Arts Camp which focuses on aiding children to express themselves through various artistic and recreational activities. We will be traveling to Egypt in October to distribute the funds and/or aid.

As our great and diverse nation begins its healing process after years of divisive rhetoric, racial injustice and violence towards people of color, we understand it is imperative to continue to create opportunities for our communities that lead to upward mobility. And so today we begin our campaign to empower girls from Latinx, Black and Indigenous communities through the creation of a scholarship fund in order to assist these future leaders in realizing their dreams. We are inspired that for the very first time in our nation’s history, both women and girls of color are able to see themselves in the highest positions of our land.

Guerrera Marketing & PR and owner Loren Medina’s non-profit organization, Travel With Purpose launches our very own scholarship program. The Guerrera x TWP Scholarship Fund will be an ongoing campaign. Applicants can email us their stories explaining why and what they need financial assistance for and how much they need to accomplish their goal. Once an applicant is chosen to receive a scholarship, Travel With Purpose [501(c)3] will make a donation directly to the institution, company or person providing the specified services. *No monies will be donated directly to the scholarship recipients in order to ensure the legitimacy of the entries. To apply to the Guerrera x TWP Scholarship Fund please send a detailed email to [email redacted]. Scholarship winners will be chosen at the end of each campaign cycle and/or once we meet our designated financial goals.
