Raising $$ for Kenyan Internship

Me and the Maasai in 2006
I have an internship in Kenya to help work with an organization that helps give loans to community organizations and co-ops in Kenya (helps facilitate microfinance to groups). I've been raising through my website, but need just a little more:

*My flight is $1800. I will send every person who donates a small piece of jewelry or art.*
I have been to Kenya twice, during the summers of 2006 and 2008 volunteering and learning Swahili. I am currently in graduate school for international development at the University of Kentucky. I aim to work in Africa upon graduation and this internship would be a big step in that direction. I would greatly appreciate any help that you could provide in helping me get a ticket for a 25 hour flight over to Nairobi. I will be sure to blog and post pictures so you can see exactly what your money went to and that you enabled me to help entire African communities.
Thank you.
