Kasey needs help getting to Carnegie Hall

Do YOU know how to get to Carnegie Hall? We do! And our High School Varsity Choir needs YOUR help!
See the TV news video here: http://www.youtube.com/ksprnews

The cost PER person is $1,800.00 before food. Kasey still needs $900.00 by May 1st to go on this trip. We are not able to pay it for him and he has been working VERY hard 5-6 nights a week and putting 1/2 his pay to the trip and the other 1/2 to his mission/college fund.
Please help Kasey in any amount you can spare and send to the school address below, but please put Kasey's name on the check so that it is credited directly to his account and be sure to watch this YOU tube video- Kasey is the main speaker- I think you will be surprised at how he has grown up! We are very proud of the young man he is and what a joy he is to have in our home!

The Logan-Rogersville High School Varsity Choir has been invited to travel to New York City this May to sing at Carnegie Hall under the direction of renowned composer, John Rutter. They will be performing with several other high school and college groups from around the country.

Approximately 58 people, including students and a few chaperones, will be getting on a bus headed to New York on May 21, 2009. Needless to say, taking that many people to New York costs about as much as a small house! (it’s a min of $1,800.00 PER person for this trip not including their food)
This is where YOU come in!
We NEED your help!
Monetary donations of ANY amount are welcomed and greatly appreciated. They can be sent to Travis Graham at the High School (checks made out to LRHS Choir Carnegie Hall project).
Donations are tax deductible.
And if you would like to directly donate to Kasey, just put his name at the top of the check- donated on behalf of Kasey Mangelson.

Send your tax deductible donations By May 1st, 2009 to:

Logan Rogersville High School Choir
C/O Travis Graham
4700 S. State Highway 125
Rogersville, MO 65742

Thank you!!!

What a great opportunity for Casey, I hope he gets to go. He really has grown up watching the clip I could not believe that was Casey I still remember him as a 8 year little boy.
