Sam Rudgard is raising money for ODA

ODA is a student-run charity that works to harness the energy, enthusiasm and resources of the Oxford student body to assist with small-scale, community-initiated development projects in the developing world.

Story

This summer I am volunteering for Oxford Development Abroad, a charity that specialises in development projects overseas. I will be one of 15 students from Oxford University to travel to Nepal to take part in a development project in a remote mountainous village. The project will involve construction of a community centre and improvements to flood protection and the school. This will all help a poor community that would otherwise be unable to afford these vital developments.

 

As a volunteer it is my responsiblity to raise the money in advance for building materials and to finance the project. In an effort to achieve this I am going to do an 800+ miles sponsored bike ride to Berlin in June/July.

If you want to know any more about the charity or the project visit http://www.odauk.org/ or get in touch and I will be more than happy to discuss it.

 

It is a very good cause and any help in reaching my target will be much appreciated.
