World Youth Day Sydney 2008

HELLO WORLD.

Sorry for that eew-ish post just now.

Anyway, I'm looking for donations that will help me get to Sydney next year for World Youth Day (WYD) 2008!
My current financial status will never get me anywhere.
I don't think I'll lie about my family income. It's below 1000. And that means maximum $250 per head. But think about it, electricity bills, phone bills, water bills, food. How much spending power do I have exactly?
The one good thing that came out of this is that I've stopped impulse shopping. And actually, I've stopped shopping altogether. Other than window shopping of course.

Basically, WYD is the Catholic Church's week of events for youth and with youth. It gathers thousands of young people from around the world to celebrate and learn about the Catholic faith and to build bridges of friendship and hope between continents, peoples and cultures.

Initiated by Pope John Paul II, World Youth Day has been held every year since 1986 when the first event was held in Rome. Sydney will host the 10th international WYD and XXIII WYD overall.

It'll be held from the 15th of July (Tues) to the 20th of July (Sun) 2008.

One dollar will go a LONG WAY.
I'll have to fork out $1000 bucks by next July to go for this event.

I don't know how many will respond, but if you would like to make a contribution, please do.
One dollar will go a LONG WAY. If you want to help me go further, more than a dollar will be gladly accepted.

Help me grow into a better leader of the Church! Help me help you.

You can pass me your kind donations when you see me in school, during Amplify Fridays, church, or even thru my brother!
Please tell him it's for funding my Sydney trip!
I will be eternally grateful to you. =D

And of course, to fund my own trip, I'll be getting a part-time job after my Os, so I won't be living solely off your donations!

It's 370 days to WYD!
