GoFundMe Campaign for Jamaica Study Abroad

Please support the African American Studies study abroad program to Jamaica this summer!  We are trying to make sure that all 11 accepted students will have the money that they need to go.  They are all applying for financial aid and scholarships.  In addition, we have partnered with the College of Charleston Foundation to organize a GoFundMe campaign for them.  They are already using it to raise money from their family and friends, but they could certainly use some additional help sharing the link for their GoFundMe campaign.  Please share this link with all of your networks, and ask them to support our students!
