Support Natalia to travel to the National Foster Youth Institute's Shadow Day in Washington DC
Participating in Help Kiwis Fly
Otago
In June 2022 I have been given the opportunity to travel to America with four other care experienced youth advocates to represent VOYCE Whakarongo Mai and New Zealand. I will be attending a national conference with U.S. foster youth organisers and will bringing back knowledge of what it's like to be a foster in the U.S.
In order to attend this exciting event I have committed to raising $1000 towards the $50,000 budget. This is my first time raising money in this way, and I would love and appreciate your support.
