This is a big opportunity for me because none of my family has ever been to Europe. I have never left the country or been on a plane. Even though this trip is an amazing opportunity, it's a financial hardship for my family. I hope to lessen the burden. I plan to devote all my free time to making this trip a reality. Being only 15 it's hard finding a job, so I spend most of my time doing odd jobs for neighbors, friends, and family. I plan on doing fundraisers and also asking for sponsorship's from local businesses.
