This week\u2019s Abroad101 Student of the Week Honor is given to Emily Grace, a true humanitarian and a senior at the University of St. Francis. Emily is majoring in nursing with a minor in Spanish. Having already participated in several volunteer mission trips in high school and college, Emily is devoted to helping people from all walks of life. \u00a0During high school she traveled to assist Hurricane Katrina victims and\u00a0then again to help individuals living in the impoverished town of Hopkins Park, IL. \u00a0During the summer of 2012, in college, Emily traveled to Sucre, Bolivia to work with individuals in the local daycare centers, hospitals, and orphanages. Then the following spring break, she went to Biloxi, Mississipi to once again assist hurricane victims.<\/p>\n

\"imageNow Emily has been accepted to an International Service Learning Program, to\u00a0provide nursing care to poverty-stricken populations in Belize. She will travel there this December and is looking for\u00a0some assistance to help her get there. \u00a0Learn more about this incredibly admirable study abroad trip here!<\/p>\n
