8/10/08: And our Journey Begins
The day before the long awaited trip is finally here! It is hard to believe 8 months ago we started with a vision to create a social enterprise and that tomorrow, everything will come full circle. International conference calls, tax ID numbers, bank accounts, new member recruitment, fundraising, goal setting, setbacks, reevaluation, visas, vaccinations, and finally success. The experience to get here has been unlike any other college experience.
Stay tuned for the adventure to come! Without a doubt, we will be making and getting the most out of our trip and we’re excited to have you aboard! Thank you so much for all the supporters who believed from the start we could do it! You will see the ripple effects of your generosity spread across the globe as each day, we will be your tour guide into the lives of these children through our blogs.
Today marks the successful completion of our first day. After hours upon hours of delay at the airport, loss of luggage in New York, and a whirlwind day running on adrenaline, we’ve made it to India!
Unfortunately the fun doesn’t stop – we are literally running out the door to receive a new phone for emergencies and have less than 20 minutes to do so. We will certainly keep you posted on our first day’s adventures soon….
