Dear family and friends-

I hope you are doing well! I have signed up for a second trip this summer! I want to let you know about this amazing opportunity I have to travel with another team of teachers to Guatemala this summer!  We will be preparing and presenting professional development workshops for teachers who work with students from schools located in areas of extreme need.  Children facing poverty face unique challenges, and so we will study Eric Jensen’s book Teaching with Poverty in Mind to help us prepare appropriate materials to adequately address the needs described by the teachers.  As we spend time with educators and community leaders we will also gain an understanding of the challenges they face and learn from their experiences.  I am sure the learning will be mutual and many relationships will be established. Since we will be learning about the history and culture of Guatemala and visiting some of their prominent historical sites, I will also be looking for ways that I can bring this experience back into my own classroom and develop connections within my curriculum where possible.
       Each team member has been asked to raise  $2200 to cover the expenses for this serving opportunity.  I am wondering if you would like to be a part of my support team and help me raise these funds? Because this is a volunteer service trip facilitated by the non-profit organization
INGAGE Unlimited, all donations are tax deductible and can be made online here Just select my name from the drop down menu for team members. I will also be sending out an email update following my trip to share about my experience.  Please email me if you have any questions!

Thank you so much for your consideration!

Love,

Ilona
