My name is Leah, and if you’ve had the good fortune of stumbling across my page, I would love to take a quick moment of your time and just let you know what I’m fundraising for. I am in the process of scrounging up my pennies so that I can head to Panama in April, 2013 as a participant with the Global Volunteer Network, and I will (hopefully) be transferring my skills as a personal care assistant in disability services here in Australia to help out some of the communities over in Panama. I am currently studying a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, and once I graduate, it is my dream to work with disadvantaged youth, because my philosophy is that we all deserve second chances in life to create something that is beautiful and fulfilling. To have the opportunity to go to Panama will assist me in helping others reach their dreams, and also be what I anticipate to be a rewarding, life-changing experience. I just need a little help to get there :)
