It's Official!

The $275 deposit has been made. On June 21st I am going to Ghana for four awesome weeks! I can't wait. I've been working really hard, giving up a lot of free time, to make this happen. I am so excited.

Rachel had enrolled in the program also, which is excellent since for a while we were uncertain whether or not she could go. She will only be staying for three weeks, one less than my four, but it will certainly be a lot of fun.

We're still waiting on Katherine, but are pretty confidant that she will be able to make it.

The next step is to send out letters to family and friends asking for donations. As much as I've been working, I don't know if I'll be able to make enough and, with university to pay for next year, I hate to rely too much on my parents. We also need to set a date for a garage sale and maybe figure out some way to do some fund raising at school.
