Greetings! My name is Luciana Jones and I am a psychology student at University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I was born and raised in Las Vegas and have been involved in this community all my life. I am affiliated with many organizations on campus as well as in my community. I have been chosen to represent my city, my community, and my school on a tour around the world. I have been accepted into a great program called Up With People. For those of you who are familiar with the "Up ^Vith People'* program the name speaks for itself. Those of you that are not, please allow me to give a brief overview. Hie program is a community service oriented organization. The group consists of 150 to 175 young people between the ages of 18-24 that travel all over the world. The group performs before an audience of dignitaries, students, parents, friends and a host of others. They sing, dance and play musical instruments in hopes of promoting an understanding of the world. Up With People has been in existence for over 30 years. It is well respected and is open to any questions and concerns regarding the program. I am enrolled in the January 1999 program. It may seem like a long way off, but it is only a few short months away. I am in dire need of your support I need to raise the amount of $15,000 dollars in order to attend the program. I would deeply appreciate your help. The deadline is drawing to a close. I am far from the complete amount and I am currently accepting any and all contributions. There is a Wells Fargo account set up to accept donations the account # 0372044289. Any branch can assist you. For your convenience, attached to the bottom of this letter there is a form that can be returned to me. Please feel free to call anytime at 647-1657 or contact the Up With People office at ( 303) 460-7100. You can also visit them on the web, http://www.upwithpeople.org. In the event that the entire amount is not reached the funds will be donated in their entirety to the Up With People Organization as a scholarship for other students in need of financial assistance. Thank you in advance for your continued support of education and the future. Name Address (optional).
