Urbana

Okay, this isn't my style, but what the hey, I'm gonna put this out there anyway. In the grand tradition of savekaryn.com, I am going to ask for help. I really want to get to InterVarsity's student missions conference, Urbana, this year. I am a poor, working college student. I have paid the $100 registration fee. And that's all I have. This conference, which focuses on such international social justice issues as AIDS and slum communities of the developing world, only happens once every three years. It will cost $350, which includes dinners for December 27th through December 31st. That does not include airfare, a hotel room (which I would likely share with three other women), or breakfast/lunch. I am not a person who usually asks for things, but in this case, I will make an exception. If you are able to financially assist me to make this dream a reality for me, I will accept your help gratefully. If you are interested, please email me (my email address is listed under my profile). If anyone actually responds, I will set up a designated bank account for this purpose and publicly post my progress towards a set amount to be determined upon further research into hotels and air fares. Thank you!

P.S. Unlike Karyn, I have never bought Prada pumps.
