My story

On the 6th to the 16th of November I will take on my biggest challenge to date and join a number of other volunteers to trek through Borneo's rainforest to raise money for the WSPA (World Society for the Protection of Animals). I will be trekking to the Nyaru Menteng sanctuary where the WSPA funds vital work and provides homes for Borneo's endangered and orphaned Orangutans. The WSPA has been raising awareness and continually working to eradicate animal cruelty for 25 years.

I will be donating the money to cover my flight and accommodation so every penny you donate will go directly to helping the vital work of the WSPA.

Those that know me well will know what a challenge it will be for me to firstly get fit enough to complete the trek, secondly to go on the trip with a group of people I don't know, and finally and perhaps my biggest challenge of all is to raise the money by the 6th August to enable me to go!!

Any donation you can make would be greatly appreciated by me and the number of animals you can help!

Thanks for your support.

Kate
