Story

<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="color: #003366;"><strong>THIS SEPTEMBER</strong> I will be climbing Africa's highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro, to raise money for a great charity called Excellent.&nbsp;</span></p> <p> <p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="color: #003366;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><strong>LAST SEPTEMBER </strong>I helped build a sand dam in Kenya and I have attached some photos of my experience. My Kili trip is to raise further awareness of sand dams and to help fund the construction of another one.</span></span></p> </p> <p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="color: #003366;"><em><em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><strong>SAND DAMS</strong> are amazing structures that capture and store millions of litres of clean water right where communities need it. They vastly improve people&rsquo;s lives and transform dry environments into places where people, plants and animals can thrive. They are the world&rsquo;s lowest cost way of capturing and storing rainwater in dry rural areas.&nbsp;</span></em></em></span></p> <p class="MsoBodyText"><em><span style="color: #003366;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #003366;">EXCELLENT</span></span></span></strong>&nbsp;does a fantastic job supporting rural communities in Africa to build sand dams and improve their food production.&nbsp;</span></span></span></span></em></p> <p> <p class="MsoBodyText"><em><span style="color: #003366;">&nbsp;</span><span style="color: #003366;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">For more information on Excellent&rsquo;s work visit their website</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.excellent.org.uk/">www.excellent.org.uk</a></span></span></em></p> </p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #003366;"><em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">I am paying my own way to get to Africa.
