My name is Jayde Bennett. I am 18 years old and am trying to be the change that I wish to see in the world. This summer I plan to travel to La Paz, Honduras for an opportunity to volunteer with and organization called AMIGOS de las Americas. While I have had other opportunities such as this, this trip is by far the most influential. I have the opportunity to spend six weeks in a rural mountainous community working closely with its inhabitants in collaboration with PLAN international. Not only is this an opportunity to better the relationship between our country and Latin America, but it is also a great opportunity for my personal goals such as bettering my Spanish.
