About 4 months ago I committed myself to GSE I have always been interested but, this year I put aside the time to volunteer for this amazing organization, that was started in our very own Sebastopol! Every Monday at 3:30 a dedicated group of teens, both boys and girls, gather at the Village Park Garden in Sebastopol to plant, turn beds, weed, harvest, and to give back to the community around us. This spring break Analy GSE is traveling to Panama, where we will strive to help reforest the Manabí reserve in Panama’s rain forest. Not only with we be planting, but we will be making international partnerships and learning about the diverse culture and people of Panama. We will be working side by side with other high school students who we share common ground with. When I return I will have a better understanding of the devotion people have across the world to make a change and hopefully I’ll pick up on some Spanish. A donation of any kind would be greatly appreciated. The total trip costs 2,889.00 dollars.
