Help Me Study Abroad

I know I haven’t posted in a long time. I tell ya school can be time consuming. As of right now I’m working on my application to study abroad in an exchange program with the Universidad de Alicante, in Alicante Spain. My goal of studies is in International Business. Aso of right now the only money I have for this program is the tuition being covered by my FAFSA. This helps, but here’s the downside…

• Travel Costs – Yielding about $750-800 Each way. Luckily there are only two of these, one there in the Fall of ’09 and once in the spring of ’10.
• Food – I don’t know whether or not I will be hosted by a host family or in a school sponsored apartment either way this would be included into additional costs not covered by FAFSA.
• Insurance – Insurance for the Exchange Program is $1/day. Being that I will be in Spain for the full year this amounts to approximately $275-$300 dollars. But! Spain Long term visa requires at least $1000 of insurance.

What I ask of you is to help me out, mainly with the administrative costs, and the cost of getting my self to Spain. Using this ChipIn program, you can use paypal to submit any amount you please. My goal is $2000 by March 31st. This is entirely do able, if you think you can help any amount is good enough.

What do YOU get??

In return I am offering to take photos of anything that interests you in Spain or anywhere else I travel to while in Spain, such as France, Italy, Morrocco etc. I will also routinely update my blog with Spanish going ons, historical facts, and even more importanty what I am doing with your money in Spain. If you want me to take photos of specific things, submit an amount, and then email me, greg{at}gregdelima{dot}com with what you want me to do and I will do the best I can to get that photo!

If you have any other ideas, shoot them over to my, I will do what I can so I can Study Abroad

Thank You!
