While most students are enjoying their Christmas break a grade 10 student at Fort Frances High School is already looking ahead to his summer vacation.
Dexter Fischuk is hoping to travel to Africa to take part in a humanitarian program sponsored by the group International Volunteer H.Q.
"I want to go to Kenya to teach music at an orphanage for a month," says Fischuk. "I'll have experience of what that country is like. When I come back I'm planning to go to schools across the Rainy River district and speaking about it."
Fischuk is now in the process of raising the $3,000 needed to pay for his trip.
