About

My name is Katherine Ventura and I am currently a junior at The Urban Assembly School for Applied Math and Science. For as long as I can remember alongside my passion for math it is has always been my dream to travel and attend college. And this summer I will be brought one step closer.

What I’m Raising Money For

I have been a SEO scholar for the past three years and this summer I have been granted the opportunity to travel abroad this summer. As you may know I have been nominated to participate in a Homestay Program in Italy. Through this program, I will be exposed to what it will be like to be on my own all the way across the country for the first time. In Italy I will be emerged into the Italian culture and live with locals for a month. I will be able to experience Italian culture first hand and live and cook food with the locals.

Why You Should Give

This Enrichment program is the perfect chance to leave my comfort zone, and ultimately help me build confidence, independence, and college-readiness. By lending your financial support, I will have access to the experience of a lifetime! Your contribution will cover the cost of transportation, textbooks, camping gear, tuition, etc for me and my other SEO peers. Anything would be greatly appreciated and would be bring me one step closer to my dreams.
