Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

After returning from Sierra Leone, where 65% of the world's population live in extreme poverty I want to raise awareness of those living in developing countries for less than a dollar a day.

In order to start this I've set myself the £1 challenge for 5 days. So just before the start date I will be heading to the shops with £5 and that's all I'll be able to eat for the 5 days. Plus since I've been back I've been making sure I always choose fairtrade products.

So now its your turn, I'm asking of you, if you're able to give please donate just £5 towards CAFOD (the Catholic Agency for Overseas Development in England and Wales) and sponsor me in this challenge. If you don't have £5 then all donations will be accepted.

  If you want to hear more about my time in Sierra Leone or about my days of the challenge then here is my blogs: http://juliastepintothegap.wordpress.com/
