Help Eli Get to New York & Boston!

An educational adventure in 2028

In March 2028, Eli Stiff will have the opportunity to travel to New York City and Boston with his school through EF Educational Tours.

This is an opportunity for him to experience places, history, and culture firsthand while traveling with his classmates and teachers.

The trip will include experiences such as:

  • 🗽 Exploring New York City

  • 🇺🇸 Visiting important sites in American history

  • 🏛️ Exploring Boston and its historic landmarks

  • 🎓 Learning outside the classroom

  • 🌎 Traveling and experiencing a new city with his independence

Why we're fundraising

We registered and paid for the trip in full in spring 2026 so that we could lock in the lowest available price. Because the trip was already paid in full, EF does not allow us to use their student fundraising page.

So instead, we're giving friends and family the opportunity to contribute directly toward the cost of the trip if they'd like to help.

There is no pressure or expectation to contribute—we simply wanted to make the opportunity available to anyone who would like to be part of helping Eli make this experience happen.

Want to help?

Any amount is appreciated! The total cost of the trip is $3264.

Our goal: $2000

You can contribute directly through Venmo:

@Lynn-Stiff

Please include “Eli’s NYC/Boston Trip” in the note.

Because we're accepting contributions directly rather than through a third-party fundraising platform, 100% of your contribution goes toward our family's cost of the trip rather than being reduced by fundraising-platform fees.

Thank you! ❤️

Whether you contribute financially, cheer Eli on, or simply share in his excitement about the trip, we're grateful for your support.

We're excited for him to have the chance to learn, explore, travel, and make memories with his classmates—and we can't wait to hear all about it when he gets home!

Thank you for helping make this experience possible.
