Jenny G. always wanted to see the world, but never thought she’d actually be able to do it. Not, that is, until she became a freshman at Indio high school and learned that math teacher Yolanda M. was leading a tour to Japan. The mere knowledge that a trip was happening was enough to make Jenny finally believe she could travel—even though she knew it would require lots of hard work, preparation, and fundraising to turn her dreams into a reality.
Watch the video below to learn why Jenny feels her teacher’s offer to travel opened a world of new possibilities—and why she’s passionate about helping even more students realize they, too, can have life-changing travel experiences.
