Hi Emily, I worked with street children at the Ibny school last November and it was a very rewarding experience. Ages range from 4 to 9 years and it is a challenge, but the school is supportive and will appreciate your contribution. See also my pr...

- yes yes i did, thank you so much david. I have been pretty steady with work and what not so I haven't really had a chance to research in awhile, but I did figure out that I will be going to Peru. So, now I just need to figure out the dates and how I'm going to get the money.
Thank you for checking up,
Emily.

- Thanks for your response David, I would love to hear some of your stories. What did you do at the school and why do you say that it was a challenge? I am trying to focus more on arts and craft-like activities, did you do much in that area or was it just teaching? Also, if you don't mind me asking, how much was your trip all together? I'm planning on going in November as well, but right now the only thing holding me back is the cost. Did you fundraise?
Sorry for all the questions, I am really excited about this program, but right now it's just a matter of finding the right one and getting the money, which is probably what stops alot of people from doing what they want in life i know but with this opportunity I think that it's worth every penny.
