Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Please note: ALL MONEY RAISED ABOVE THE MINIMUM TARGET OF £1800 WILL GO DIRECTLY TO THE WORK OF WATOTO.
From being very young I have always wanted to visit/volunteer at an Orphange.I guess due to life changes time went by and I never went. I am married with a beautiful daughter called Libby. Early in 2010 we found out were expecting our 2nd baby but sadly in May I misscarried. I made the decision that if it happened again then I would go and work in an orphanage and turn my pain into purpose for somebody else. Sadly in October I had a second misscarriage so as this page indicates I am visiting Baby Watoto in April this year. Things happen in life that we have no control over however i do believe that you have a choice what you do with your pain and I feel privilidged to be able to go and help look after these babies whilst waiting for our own baby. In order to raise funds to go I will be doing a sponsered swim of 5KM(200 Lengths)-this is the distance it takes a child to walk for water in the area i am visiting. My minimum amount to raise is £1800. This will cover the cost of fights/accomodation but also give a £650 donation to the orphange to put towards building work,etc. Anything above my target will go straight to the Orphanage and the incredible work that is being done there.
Thankyou on behalf of myself and also the children that will benefit form your generosity. You can see the place i am visiting at www.watoto.com
