Hi Family and Friends!
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my service trip's fundraising page. In December, a group of several Northwestern students and I are travelling to Cusmapa, Nicaragua with Northwestern's Sheil Catholic Center. There, our group is looking forward to working with the Fabretto Children's Foundation. Not only will we be building up several of their facilities, but because schools are not in-session at that time of the year, we will also be spending much time with the local children.
I am excited that this will be my second service trip through the Sheil Catholic Center. (Last winter, I went with another group of NU students to Detroit, Michigan where we learned about the city's past plights and participated in a citywide restoration project of abandoned homes.)
In order to make the Nicaragua trip a success, the cost is $1,900 per person. Some students find themselves unable to afford this without your generous support. If you feel inclined to donate, please know that the money first goes to pay for our trip expenses. Any additional money will be given to Fabretto to support their programs in Nicaragua. Thank you so much for your generous support!
All the best,
Tess
