Hello, my name is Frida Medrano Ibarra and I’m a new 2023 JAG graduate from Copper Canyon High School. I am requesting financial support to attend the Jobs for America's Graduates National Training Seminar, which will be held in Kentucky from July 10th - 14th. 

As the newly elected National Career Association President Elect, this event presents an incredible opportunity for me to gain valuable professional development and career experience.

The JAG program has a profound impact on my life, helping me overcome barriers and achieve success in education, professional, and personal development. Being a part of this remarkable organization has been an immensely rewarding experience, and I am truly honored to have been recently elected by my peers as the JAG National Career Association President Elect.

The National Training Seminar is a crucial event where leaders from various JAG affiliates across the nation gather to exchange ideas, share best practices, and learn from industry experts. Attending this seminar will allow me to enhance my knowledge and skills and will provide me with an exceptional platform for networking with professionals in the field, building meaningful relationships, and exploring collaborative opportunities.

While I am wholeheartedly committed to attending this important event, the financial burden associated with travel, accommodation, registration fees, and other related expenses poses a significant challenge. Therefore, I humbly request your support in covering the costs associated with my attendance. Your financial assistance will not only enable me to represent JAG effectively but also empower me to bring back valuable insights and strategies that can benefit our local community and the broader JAG network.

 I am committed to sharing the knowledge and experiences gained at the National Training Seminar through presentations to JAG students and supporters, ensuring that the benefits of your support reach beyond my personal development.

Please visit jag.org/nts for the agenda, registration fee and travel expenses. I sincerely believe that this event holds immense potential for me to grow as a professional and contribute more effectively to our JAG’s mission of empowering young individuals like me to achieve their full potential.

Your investment in my attendance will have a lasting impact on my career trajectory and will undoubtedly contribute to the betterment of our organization and the JAG community at large.

Thank you for considering my request.  Should you require any additional information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at leads.frida@jagaz.org.
