Fundraiser Profile

Join me and change lives in Antigua

In March 2022, I was given the incredible opportunity to travel with the Osborne Head and Neck Foundation to Guatemala City for their Medical and Impact Mission. It was a life-changing experience. In the span of a week, I was immersed into a different reality than the life I live here in the United States. This trip showed me how much help is needed by people around the world with very little or no access to medical care. I was not only able to observe life changing surgeries, but also got to know the patients and their stories.


This July, I will be traveling  with the Osborne Head and Neck Foundation’s physicians and other volunteers to Antigua, Guatemala, for another Medical and Impact Mission. Our goal is to provide individuals with the medical support they need, while helping underprivileged schools. Please join me in making a difference by contributing to this life-changing mission. Any amount will make a difference, whether you donate $10 or $100. Any support is greatly appreciated!

I’ve committed to raising $10,000 towards Medical and Impact Missions in Guatemala. With your support we can change lives.
