The Ask:

It is our hopes to afford the opportunity for at least one third of our current GiftedAcademy students to attend this special occasion. In order to make this trip cost effective, we have designed a series of opportunities for our supporters and those alike to help make this memorable experience possible and limit the financial burden for our families and attendees.
