Just how tall is Big Ben?

about my venture

So just how tall is it? I can't wait to find out!

I am so excited to tell you that I am preparing to go to Europe. I was personally invited to travel there by People to People Ambassadors, a program created by our past President Eisenhower. People to People Ambassadors was started to allow everyday citizens from different countries to get to know each other. This affords us understanding and friendship with one another, resulting in peace. I have dreamed of traveling to Europe, and here is my chance. To make this lifetime dream a reality I need your help.

My journey to find out...

In Europe I will travel to four different countries including Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and England where I will find the Big Ben. In these countries I will explore castles, learn about the life style of the people, and learn of the people’s culture as well as my great grandparents’ heritage in Scotland.

I will stay with a host family for several days. The total duration of the trip is 20 days. Also departure dates are yet to be determined, but I will most likely be leaving in the month of June. If you would like any more information about People to People Ambassadors check out http://www.peopletopeople.com/Pages/default.aspx.

How you can help me

Funds are being raised to cover expenses. I am babysitting every chance I get and getting creative with fundraising tactics. But I need your help to raise the estimated $7,600 for this adventure. Please help me by backing this project. I will present you a variety of rewards depending on the amount of your contribution. Thank you!
