Hello there! My name is Kaitlyn Becker.  I would first like to thank you for visiting our page. I am a high school sophomore living in San Francisco, California. In June of this year my friend and classmate, Sabrina, and I are planning to volunteer in Antigua, Guatemala with The Young Dreamer Network. All volunteer work will take place at an elementary school in a small Mayan village approximately 20-30 minutes from Antigua called Vuelta Grande. Our volunteer work will be focused on education, school improvement, and environmental projects. Our main objective will be to serve two long-term programs: academic support and physical school improvement.

I myself have always loved to help others and being able to have this opportunity is truly a blessing but this opportunity isn’t free. In order to participate, we need to fundraise $2000 by June. Part of the money will help cover the costs of the tuition. All other costs will be donated and or used to help the community.

I thank you in advance for anything you’re able to contribute and hope that together we can change others lives.
