“Darlene is a role model for all of us. She has chosen to travel in a way that is not
only self-fulfilling but she is giving her time to others,” Shaw said. “Cross-Cultural
Solutions is a cultural exchange and volunteer organization.  Sharing different
perspectives and relating to one another is a core component to the volunteer
experience. Darlene offers so much to the communities we work in, as well as her
fellow volunteers. What an amazing experience for other volunteers to travel and
learn about another community and also meet someone like Darlene.”

To help raise money for her trip, Grieger is asking her friends, family and others
who support her vision, to donate online. Cross Cultural Solutions offers a secure
web site for donations. “That has been a tremendously useful tool,” she said. “It’s
very safe. For anyone who donates to this trip, I thank you from the bottom of my
heart. And I know the people of Thailand will thank you, too.”
