There's an organization called Leaders Today that does great things to help the world. One of them -- something that I would love to participate in -- is gathering volunteers and having them go to Kenya to build a school. I'd love to do it, but it's very expensive. It costs 4,895 CAD (about $4,819), but that's only from a certain airport (I have to pay for the ticket that will get me there, and prices are only going up). Plus, I have to pay for a lot of shots, some spending money in case of emergencies, a special insurance, etc etc. The point is, it's not cheap. I'm only seventeen, and I won't be allowed to work very much during the year. Furthermore, my dad says that if I spend my own money on the trip to Kenya, he won't help me pay for college. Does anyone know of a way that I could be sponsored or somehow get large donations?
