Hello!
My name is Aikaterini Kargioti. My friends call me Katerina. Coming from a small village in northern Greece, I always wanted to see more of the world, to get to know people that come from very different backgrounds, and learn more about what makes different cultures unique. However, I did not know how I could achieve this dream. In 2016, I decided to attend the American Farm School of Thessaloniki (and was awarded a full scholarship – covering room, board, and tuition), where I learned about Camp Rising Sun. I decided to apply, and I was excited to learn that I was selected for the 2017 session! Attending this program will give me the opportunity to experience what I always wanted, the chance to see the world! I will meet many bright people and make new friends from different cultures. Going to Camp Rising Sun will help me grow as a learner and a leader and become a true global citizen. Camp Rising Sun will also bring me one step closer to my dream of studying abroad and becoming a scientist.
For the past ten years, Greece has been facing a serious financial, social, and political crisis. Studying abroad and becoming a researcher will enable me to return back to Greece and give back to my community since education and innovation are key to overcoming this crisis.
Camp Rising Sun will be a life-changing experience for me. Thus I truly appreciate any help you can give. Contributing to my airfare means you are making my dream come true. Thank you.
