Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit Louise Entwistle and Jane Connolly's JustGiving page.

Our story so far:-

Somehow we got roped into this but after much deliberation, thought what a fantastic opportunity to take time out and do something good in life for someone else.  We are under no illusion that it's going to be easy, we are faced with the potential of altitude sickness, snakes and who only knows what else! We hope at least the volcanoes will be asleep. Training will be tough, but what is it they say...." character building"! 

We are raising money for a charity which provides education for disadvantaged children from the age of 11 in Guatemala who would otherwise be working on the streets.  This money will be going towards the building of a new school.

(Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - We raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity. If you wish to know more about the charity please visit www.studyguatemala.com .

So please, any donations would be gratefully received.

Thank you in anticipation of your support.

About the charity

Study Guatemala

RCN 1099834
Study Guatemala provides free education for disadvantaged children in Guatemala City, Central America. The funds we raise support an educational centre for boys and girls in Zone 5 of the city. The children we support are aged 11-18 and could not otherwise afford to go to school. The qualifications they obtain help them lead a better life. Currently Study Guatemala rents premises in Zone 5 the city. These premises are in bad condition and overcrowded. We have now purchased land and have commenced building our own school. We are trying to raise much needed funds to complete the building in the next 12 months.
