Kelli Saunders hasn't added a story.
Hello, my name is Kelli Saunders. I am 20 years old, and I am going to be a junior in college. I love my school, but it's expensive to go to. The only reason I am going to that particular school is because they pay half my tuition every year, and the rest is financial aid. One of my dreams is to be able to study abroad. I really want to go to Japan. I love the culture, and I have always felt like I fit in more with Japanese and Korean people than I ever have with people here in America. That doesn't mean that I don't love America, but I want to be able to experience the world. Unfortunately my father's company, Con Agra, closed last October, and he has been unemployed since then. He's been trying to find a job, but it just has not panned out like he thought it would. But I truly don't want his hardships to affect what I can experience in life. Which is why I am trying to start this fundraiser. The money would be used for getting a passport, paying for my plane tickets, and paying for room and board while I am over in Japan. Please help me. I'm not one to ask for help often, but I have it a brick wall and I don't know what else to do, because I need to have this money before January. I know I should not have waited this long, but I did because I wanted to exhaust as many avenues as I could before I turned to you, the public. I really am optimistic that I will be able to go, as long as I have hope in humanity. It is my life-long dream to go to Japan, and I will do everything I possibly can to fulfill my life-long dream. Thank you all!
