My Volunteer Trip to Trinidad

My Name is Tony Martin, I am a Veteran and full-time student at UMASS Boston.  I had an opportunity as a Benjamin A. Gilman scholar to study abroad spring semester 2016, while there I had a chance to work alongside U.S. Ambassador John L. Estrada to honor the staff and residents of St. Mary's Children Home (SMCH).  It was the most incredible experience I have had to date.  I am raising money to return to Trinidad and Tobago, to plan a special Christmas concert for SMCH featuring local artists like Brenda Butler, Keishaun Justin Julien and Micah Modeste.   The money I raise will be used for transportation and for making a special donation to SMCH.  I need to raise this money by COB June 25th, 2016.  This means a lot to me because I have vowed to spend the rest of my life giving back of my time, gifts and talents to benefit others through collaboration, partnerships and philanthropy.  I know that I cannot do any of these things without your help and support.  It would mean the world to me and to the SMCH.  Any amount given towards the goal we have set will be very much appreciated.
