I will be departing on a plane to Atlanta in 4 weeks and a day. As I think about what is ahead there are many unknowns. What will my home look like? Who are my teammates? With what organization will I volunteer my time? Who will my neighbors be? I am waiting patiently to learn these details, and I won't know some of these things until I'm in Atlanta. In the meantime, I thought I would share some things I do know with you.
I will be living in a communal house with 4-6 other people who have the same passion as I do. They are strangers to me right now, but in a couple of weeks they will be my teammates. Our first gathering will be at Community Grounds Coffee.
My flight to Atlanta, Georgia leaves on August 27 at 7:25 AM.
My income will be $70 a month. My parents will be paying my phone bill, my loans are deferred, my independence is being stripped away at 24.
I am a team leader for the English ave. Team. (more information on that to come)
Our city director is Caz Todd. From what I've heard she's amazing and I'm excited to meet her.
I need to raise 12,000 for the year. If you would like to support me financially please go to the Mission Year Donate page. My ID number is 10-0046.
Those are some facts. Thanks for reading and have a great day!
