Yes, that's right... you can help Alyssa go to Washington. Alyssa, and about 25 of her classmates are planning to go to Washington DC for a week in April. They'll be going as part of the Close Up program. As a Close Up participant she will have the opportunity to observe Congress and the Supreme Court while they are in session, explore the Jefferson Memorial and others, and explore neighborhoods like Georgetown.
She needs to raise about $1500 to go on this trip. She's already been working on fund raising for a couple months but she would really appreciate some more help, if you are able.
Instead of the traditional fund raising thermometer we've decided to be a little different. As you can see, Alyssa is black and white right now. Her picture is also relatively small. You'll want to continue coming back over the next few days and weeks to see if Alyssa's face becomes more colorful and the picture grows larger as the money comes in.

Count us in. Who should we make a check payable to?
Thanks, Dan
I think it'll be easiest if you just make the check out to Alyssa.
Have you noticed - the picture has grown!
Alyssa is beginning to show the color of thankfulness...
Please note the new shade of thanfulness...
Look at her - she is exuding the essence of thankfulness.
The bigness of your generosity is causing Alyssa's picture to grow. She's getting real close to her natural color also...
We are now at full color - thank you very much.
