Support Claire's Student Exchange to New Zealand!

Hi! I'm Claire.

Great news... I have been selected as a delegate for the Tempe Sister Cities International Student Exchange during summer 2025. There are 27 Tempe delegates who will travel to 7 different countries. I am excited to be one of them!

I will be traveling to Lower Hutt, New Zealand for the first half of the summer to live with a family who has a daughter my age. Then, my New Zealand sister will travel with me to Tempe to spend the last half of the summer. We will experience each other's cultures, explore each other's countries, eat new foods, make friends, and learn to appreciate life around the world. It is a unique and life-changing exchange program. I'm so excited to have this experience!

Once back in the USA, we will participate in the Tempe Sister Cities summer program with the other 26 delegates and their international sisters/brothers from around the world. I am excited to share the USA with my New Zealand sister.

Tempe Sister Cities is a non-profit organization. Our summer program is funded solely by fundraising. Would you consider making a tax-deductible donation to support me and my New Zealand sister during the Summer 2025 Tempe Sister Cities Student Exchange? I greatly appreciate your consideration. Thank you!

Tēnā koe
