My Travel Story

by: James Drake Start Date: Oct 5, 2023 - End Date: Oct 21, 2023
As my birthday approaches, I find myself wanting nothing more than to be surrounded by family and friends back home. It also happens that 3 days after my birthday is one of my brothers from another mother's wedding! With this in mind, I'm reaching out to you, my cherished friends and loved ones, to ask for your support in making this trip possible.

As many of you know, I work in film and television. This year has been exceptionally tough due to the studios' budget cuts and the ongoing strikes. Work, and therefore funds, have been extremely limited.

Any contribution, big or small, will make a significant difference in helping me reach my goal. Your support will not only enable me to attend the wedding but also allow me to spend precious time with family and friends. I understand that not everyone may be able to contribute financially, and that's absolutely okay. Your moral support, warm wishes, and sharing of this message with your network would also mean a lot to me.

I genuinely appreciate your consideration and support in making this birthday celebration and wedding attendance a reality. I look forward to reuniting with you all and celebrating these special moments together.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a part of my life, and for helping make this birthday and wedding trip unforgettable.
