Jacky and John are heading off to take part in a trek for the Romanan Foyer Trust in August 2011.
They will walk 48 miles over five days in the mountains of Muramures in northern Romania.
They'll be expected to survive basic living conditions, including living rough under canvas – 2/3 person tents, no toilets!
In September 2002, the Romanian Foyer Trust opened the first Foyer in Romania. They have up to 18 young people living safely in the Foyer house in Satu Mare, all of whom recently left local State-run Children’s Homes or are living on the streets. Our Romanian staff act as parent, friend and mentor to the young people. They teach and give support in everyday living skills and social behaviour, training for work and help with choosing, finding and keeping a job.
If you would like to support us in raising funds for the RFT, please donate here through the Just Giving page.
Many thanks,
Jacky and John xx
P.S Jacky thinks Megan George would approve!
