Trip to Australia
Donation protected
Hi everyone! My name is Emilia Long and I'm going to begin my junior year of college this fall 2023, transferring from Peninsula College to Cal Poly Humboldt. I am raising funds so that I can go to Australia with my next soccer team in July. We will play in three games and get to watch two World Cup games. We'll get to do all kinds of fun things while there, which will be a really cool experience and opportunity. Right now I'm busy with loads of school for the spring quarter so that I can graduate with my AA. My days are very busy. I'm usually gone most of the day for class and soccer practice. I also help out at a youth soccer academy twice a week. I am usually gone from about 9-10 am to around 4:30-7 pm during the week and play games on some of the Saturdays. I don't have a lot of free time at the moment, and when I do it's mainly spent on doing homework. While in school, this schedule doesn't leave a lot of room for a job right now, although I plan on getting a job or two once school is over. I haven't done a fundraiser for myself before because I don't love this kind of stuff, but the conflict I have is that the payment for the trip is due May 15th. If this was due later I would be able to save up by working, but since it's so soon it makes it hard to come up with that while in school and season. I thought it would be a good idea to try some sort of fundraising to see if I could reach that goal. I'll be working in the summer to afford not only the trip but also to save up for my next year in college for payments such as phone service and gas if I take my car with me. I'll be playing both soccer and basketball for Humboldt, so I'll be very busy year-round with that and school which won't leave me a lot of time to work during the school year. Anyways, thank you for taking the time to read this. I am grateful for and appreciate any donations if you're interested!
