Visit U.N. for Int'l Peace Day

Donation protected
As one of 500 youth selected to participate in the International Day of Peace, I have recieved the opportunity to visit the United Nations in New York and connect with others who are similarly passionate about imagining and instituting global change.

I represent a Pagan perspective, which defines my goals as pursuit of natural balance and maintaining a connection to past tradition while seeking necessary progress. I am also a student of science, which has stimulated my desire to utilize scientific knowledge and technologies to ensure the establishment of a more harmonious future.

In a press release, I gave the following statement:

"I am extremely grateful for this opportunity to be included in such an auspicious and vital recognition of the issues currently affecting the daily experience of youth around the world. It is my firm belief that our growth as a community will be best served by continuing to incorporate diverse perspectives and by seeking to foster global connections as we work toward a more peaceful and sustainable future. On a personal level, I anticipate that this occasion will invigorate and inspire those involved, and I will endeavor to pass along that proactive energy to others in my own circle and beyond."

This campaign was started to collect some of the funding I will need in order to travel to and from New York and secure lodging for the days I am there.
