Help Send Zach to Japan!
Donation protected
Zach Montgomery is an 8th grader in the Seattle WA area. He has an amazing opportunity to travel to Japan with his Japanese class this summer (July 2017).

His Japanese teacher has been taking kids to Japan for more than 10 years. They will be seeing many sites, visiting schools, and living with a Japanese family for part of their trip. I've included their tentative itinerary below.
Zach has been working hard in his Japanese class to prepare for this trip.

The trip will cost about $3500. Zach is raising money through babysitting, but we will still have quite a bit to raise in addition to that.
Any help you could offer will be greatly appreciated!
Message from Zach: I am an 8th grade student who wants to go on a trip with my Japanese class to Japan during the summer. I have been studying all year for this and I need your help to get me to Japan.
Thank You!!
