In total, I collected 144 toothbrushes to bring to San Pedro with me.

Today I read a chapter about building the fogones in my community. I'm really excited to start my project in 10 days.

The Key Club at Montville High School heard about the Toothbrush Drive we are doing and is starting one of there own. I think I might need an extra bag to put all of them in.

The Key Club at my school has been collecting toothbrushes from teachers and students all this week. So far, we have collected about $30 (to purchase toothbrushes) and 20 toothbrushes. I'm going to bring all of the donations to Paraguay and use them to teach children about dental hygiene as part of my project.

I just purchased my mosquito netting and water purification tablets and I have everything I need for my trip.

I just went shopping for all the supplies I will need this summer. I leave in 29 days!

My Amigos Shirt and international plane tickets came in the mail today.

My visa for Paraguay came in the mail last week, and I booked my flight to Miami. In 39 days I'll be in San Pedro!

I am finally done fundraising for my trip and I'd like to thank everyone who donated. Without all of you, I wouldn't be able to have this incredible opportunity
