Support my 6-month trip to Guatemala

In my blog’s first entry I mentioned my exciting plans that I will be heading down to Guatemala in September for a 6-month long visit. During this time. I will be helping out around the educational organization Paso a Paso, learning more about the families and the community we work with, and working with Paso a Paso’s founders to develop plans for the future.
I will be traveling to Guatemala on a volunteer-basis and, thus, will have no income during these 6 months. Taking into account travel, housing, food, daily necessities, and supplies, I estimate that the trip will cost around $3,000. 
Thankfully, a portion of this amount has already been sponsored by Guided Steps, Faith Lutheran Church, and my personal coffers.
But I really need your help in rallying support for the remainder.

Can you please help?
To help raise funds to sponsor this trip, we have launched a crowdfunding campaign with Generosity.
You can help by:
  • Sponsoring a portion of this trip by going to my Generosity page and making a donation
  • Share the Generosity page with your friends and family (Also, if you’ve been to Paso a Paso, share a little about their incredible work when you share the Generosity page!)
  • Send prayers, good vibes, advice, and donations/supplies to nick@nickgaston.com
Any funds donated are 100% tax-deductible pursuant to section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code. And any funds raised beyond what is needed will go directly towards supporting Paso a Paso.
