I have been selected to go to Hollywood in July for one week to participate at Hollywood Immersive, a programme that helps talent to enter in the industry. Only 15 people are selected and I'm one of them!
I'm an actress and in that week I will meet producers, casting directors, agencies and I will work with vocal and acting coach.
The costs is $9000 (programme cost + tickets). I don't have that money, so I need your help. This is a huge opportunity for my career - being introduced in Hollywood it's a big step. Help me to go there!
