The Final Deadline draws near

Good Morning Friends and Family!

As of Monday the second payment for Tiffany's trip has been submitted. The Final payment of 609 dollars is due on September 3rd. As it stands now we are still a bit shy of this amount, having 200 dollars saved and ready to send.

Tiffany and her MeMaw held a successful yardsale last weekend and we hope to hold one more this coming Saturday, put together with the aid of her Great Grandmother Evelyn, her Grandmother Debbie and Anita and many others who donated goodies to sell.

This will be the final financial hurdle to overcome. We have successfully raised not only the first two payments of over 1200 dollars but also her airfare and shuttle fees which had to be paid up front which was about 300 dollars.

Once we reach that benchmark all that is left is some time, a bit of preparation, some studying on Tiffanys part since she needs to be versed in government roles, some history and some current events, and voila..shes off to DC!!!!

Thank you all for your support, your caring and your enthusiasm as we send Tiffy to DC!

Sincerely,
Chuck

Travel Plans Made

As of today we used Omega Travel Agency, the one suggested by the NYLC and set up Tiffanys travel plans. She leaves Charlotte at 1pm on october 5th and returns at 3pm october 10th. The plans and itenary were submitted to the NYLC and all is good as of right now.

We are still working towards the final payment and we would like to thank each and every single one of you who dug deep and gave during these trying times to ensure that Tiffany gets to experience this wonderful opportunity!

Thank You!
Charles Porter
