One thing that I want to do really bad is go to Africa to help people who don't have what I have. If I could I would want to go this upcoming Summer but I can't find anyone who is interested or willing to go with me. A lot of people are worried about loosing their Summer and having to work through it instead. But lets think here, how many great Summers have you had and how many has a child in Africa been able to enjoy? Probably not any for they don't really have a vacation from their daily lives.
I got the idea of this from my Aunt who went to help out in Africa. I have so much respect for her now after she has done that. Anyone who can give up their time for someone else is much respected in my book. But I think its time that I do something too.
Money is always the big issue on this especially if you're still in college like I am. But there are ways to go about this like fund raising and grants from the government who are willing to pay for you to help out other people.
If I could find anyone else to go with me then I would like to research abroad programs and hopefully hop on board with this within this or next year.
