Thank you to our school communities for your support!

Participants worked hard all this fall raising money to make this trip happen. The Civil Rights Trip requires about $800/person. With the support of our schools, parents, families, friends, and other members of our communities, we achieved our goal of $32,800. (Yay!) But, we always strive to "leave it better than we found it," so we always like to leave some money behind to insure that future trips can also go. (We have another trip coming up as soon as this April.) Please consider making a donation to The Civil Rights Trip and help make this opportunity available to other students in years to come.

Please make checks out to "The Park School of Baltimore Civil Rights Trip" and send them to
