Thank you to my sponsors:

To my family and friends!! Thank you for visiting this page! If you have, then it means you have heard about the amazing adventure I have just begun!! I will be leaving for ANTARCTICA in late February of 2013, to take part in the Antarctica Youth Ambassador Program- joining the International Antarctic Expedition!

Along with the other 30 young people chosen from around the WORLD as part of the youth program, I will spend 12 days on the magical (kind of cold) continent!!!!!!

About 2041- The company I am going with

2041 was founded by polar explorer, environmental leader and public speaker Robert Swan, OBE, the first person in history to walk to both the North and South poles totally unassisted. Swan has dedicated his life to the preservation of Antarctica by the promotion of recycling, renewable energy and sustainability to combat the effects of climate change. In the year 2041 the Protocol on Environmental Protection to the Antarctic Treaty could potentially be modified or amended. Our aim is to work towards the continuing protection of the Antarctic Treaty so that the last great wilderness on earth is never exploited. For more information go to http://2041.com/

The purpose of the expedition is to inspire the next generation of leaders to take responsibility, be sustainable, and know that now is the time for action in policy development and sustainable business generation, through the promotion of recycling, renewable energy and sustainability.

I will be joined by a group of 90 expedition participants, which will include the youth ambassadors as well as corporate executives, educators, students and entrepreneurs representing 70 countries. The expedition will be led by famed British polar explorer, Robert Swan OBE, the only man to have walked to both the North and South Poles.

I hope to raise $25,000 to fund the cost of the expedition through fundraising and sponsorship, and you donate through the PayPal button above, or just send me an email if you’d prefer to transfer money across into my special Antarctica fund 🙂
