Join Together And Help Vanessa Nelson Go To Brazil




Vanessa Nelson (Along With Six Other Chico State Students) Has Earned a Trip to Brazil. She Needs Your Help.

So what's the deal?

Seven Chico State students have earned the right to represent the SAGEGLOBAL staff in Brazil because each of them has served over 200 community service hours this year. They have served as a SAGE mentor to high school students in California, and also served as a SAGE event coordinator for the SAGE USA Tournament on May 29-31 in the San Francisco Bay Area. Now, they need to raise the rest on their own. Will you help? The students are Rob Martinez, Kristi Nakasako, Kyle Gyurina, Liz Wendorf, Vanessa Nelson, Veronica Lansdon and Vanessa Nelson. All donations from this page will be added to Vanessa's Brazil fund.

How can you help?

Pitch in! On the right there are a few links to "Donate" to their SAGE Travel Fund (Paypal account not required). You can do $25, $50, $100, or more. (If you would rather write a check, send Curt DeBerg an email to cdeberg@csuchico.edu and he will tell you where to send the check.)

What do you get?

A SUPER easy way to help the Chico State SAGE program. And the donation to SAGEGLOBAL is tax deductible (our 501 c 3 taxpayer ID number is: 26-1129228).

Has SAGEGLOBAL helped pay their airfare and hotel?
