Help Alex go to National Spelling Bee

Hi, my name is Alex Tiu. I'm a 7th grader in St. Cyprian's Episcopal school in Lufkin, Texas. I was invited to participate through the RSVBee program to join and compete in the Scripps National Spelling  Bee in Washington DC on May 26 through June 1, 2019. It has always been my dream since second grade to experience and  be a part of this prestigious competition. So, I was extremely elated and felt honored to receive such invitation.  I would like to reach out to everyone's hearts for their generous support to fund me for such  an endeavor. The cost for this feat includes registration of $1500, airfare of approximately $450, and accommodation fee of $1750 for 6 days. This does not include food and other expenses. I would be very grateful for any kind of support you all can provide to help me accomplish this dream. Thank you and God bless!
