International Leadership: India

Hello, my name is Ashley. I was born in Harlem, New York but was raised in the Bronx. I used to live with a family of 5, my mother, my father, my two older brothers and I. But being that my family has been through some changes I now live with my mother and one of my older brothers. Living in a divided household is tough, especially since I'm experiencing this at sixteen. Although my family is not how it use to be, we know how important it is to communicate with one another and still support each other through our struggles. I'm very reliable, responsible and also very compassionate. On my leisure time I like to knit, write and hang out with my friends and family. I'm looking forword to this trip, this would be an awesome experience, just to escape New York City and see how other families function As far as fundraising goes, so far I have fundraised $200. I'm preparing a dinner party at the end of February and organizing a school talent show/bake sale in the beginning of April, hopefully I will have $1000 by the end of April. I can't wait!
