“Pay It Forward” by Madeline Tanner

So far, my time here in Capetown has been unreal. It’s only 2 weeks into the trip and I have experienced so many different things, overcame more obstacles, and seen more beautiful places than I have in my lifetime. One of my favorite parts of the trip so far has been the lectures. Hearing about the impact others have made in the world really encourages me (and I’m sure most everyone else on this trip) to make an impact in the world. After we spent the night in Sir Lowry’s Pass, we were all given 10 Rand during our lecture and were told to add, multiply, subtract or divide this money to do something for someone else. The father at the house in the township that I stayed in had told me that some of the children have to be sponsored to go to school. So my goal for paying it forward? Anonymously sponsor a child in Sir Lowry’s Pass to go to school. Wish me luck!
