*BIG THANKS to everyone who contributed!! Your support means the world to us, we hit our goal today, 3/18/25! We are extremely grateful to all of you who helped make it happen! Stay tuned with updates on her trip!
Nalín is preparing for an amazing experience and opportunity to study abroad in Spain in June 2025!
Please help us get her there!
Following a competitive process Nalín recently received notification that her application was approved, being 1 of 20 students selected out of hundreds of applications.
We have pulled together funds to cover initial fees, deposits, and down payments to solidify her slot and now we are reaching out to our community to support us to fundraise the remaining balance due by April.
We appreciate any support to make this happen for her!
This trip is a once in a lifetime opportunity that focuses on what they learn in Spanish class while traveling independently with a chance to see the world.
By living with local families, she will experience daily-life in Spain while making deep connections with an international community.
Some of the itinerary includes:
• Homestays in Sevilla with families
• 2 weeks of morning Spanish culture classes at the Centro Mundolengua to earn a certificate of completion
• Afternoon and evening cultural visits and recreational activities in Sevilla
• Weekend excursions to nearby destinations in Andalucía, including Córdoba and Granada and
• 3 days in Madrid including visiting the recently renovated Santiago Bernabeu Real Madrid Football Stadium and so much more!
The trip will be a personal challenge, but also enriching and an exciting goal that will contribute to her independence, character building, and help develop vital life skills as she enters her senior year and transitions into young adulthood.
We have been encouraged to find ways to fundraise as much as possible to offset costs, so any donation is greatly appreciated.
**Be on the look out for upcoming updates, auctions, and opportunities to be in community with Nalín as she prepares for this life changing opportunity.
Much Love & Gratitude,
Valentina, Ricardo & NalÍn
