My name is Erica Criscione and I am a 12th-grade honor roll student at Jonathan Law High School in Milford, CT. I am a Keyette and I volunteer as a partner in Unified Sports. I have been a Fairfield County 4-H member at The Beardsley Zoo for 7 years.
I am a People to People Student Alumni Ambassador and Junior Leader having had the privilege of traveling to Europe in 2010, China in 2011, Spain & Italy in 2012 and now I am off to the British Isles in July 2013. I have designed and maintained four websites to help promote my fund raising efforts and to talk about People to People. I have accumulated over 600 hours as a volunteer and in addition, I have spent over 800 hours fund raising the program tuition I need each year as a student ambassador. Traveling as a People to People Student Ambassador has changed me for the better and the decisions I make and the way I view things continue to be influenced by my experiences abroad. I am a true believer in the People to People Student Ambassador program which promotes international understanding while building leadership skills among America’s youth. When I become a teacher, I am looking forward to being a leader for People to People. In addition to baking desserts for donations, I am a craft vendor selling home made jewelry for children, decoupage plates, small woodworking items and smencils. I am also hosting a fabulous virtual raffle! I am grateful for all the past support I have received from my family, friends, teachers, acquaintances and local businesses and I look forward to their future support. I am confident that this will be my best fundraising year ever and I will need as much help as I can get to reach a 100% goal. Won't you please help spread the word to everyone you know and tell them all that People to People is the way to go! |
