Hola!

As some of you may know, Amir and I will be trekking to the summit of the highest mountain in Africa: Kilimanjaro.

Why?

This epic trek is the one of many activities we will be undertaking as part of a wider project: BeeKind the sole purpose of which - raise as much money as possible for as many people as possible!

It may seem like a lofty goal but, put simply - we want to change the world! I know we can't do this but we can do my part to help. By creating BeeKind we are intending to channel donations and resources from multiple donors into a single objective: raising as much money as possible for each chosen cause.

we want to show the individuals that we meet and help, that there is hope and people do care about them (as cheesy as this sounds - it’s the truth). It is easy to underestimate the impact of one conversation or a single gesture to someone who is under privileged - it can be life changing for them. Giving up your time and/or donations to facilitate this kind of interaction is priceless.

The first project under the BeeKind umbrella will be the Kilimanjaro trek. we're hoping to raise £5000 which equates to INR 420,000.

Why is supporting BeeKind different from donating to other charities online?

The purpose of BeeKind is to provide a space for people to donate funds to causes they’re passionate about that allows them to see the direct impact of their donations, Our aim is to increase the transparency of the donation process to allow donors to see exactly who their money is helping, and how it is doing so.

For us personally, one of the most vital considerations when deciding which charity to donate to is reassurance over how the money has been spent. Due to the increasing levels of admin involved in a lot of larger charities, we feel that the transparency around this spending process is steadily decreasing. Through BeeKind we want to address this issue and ensure that you can see exactly where your money has gone.

we will personally take control of what happens to the funds raised by getting involved first hand; working closely with the chosen charities to ensure that any donations are spent on the most appropriate resource. As with all projects under the BeeKind umbrella, the aim will be to ensure that donations are spent wisely in order to positively impact the largest number of people possible.

Getting involved:

The whole ethos of BeeKind is based on maximum participation and maximum impact. Therefore, any involvement is a positive involvement! You can show your support in any way you see fit: it can be as simple as forwarding my page to your friends or as extreme as actually coming to India with us! Please contact me on the following e-mail address: beekindproject26@gmail.com

We will be using social media (Instagram, Facebook, Whatsapp etc.) to communicate with people who have taken the time to support this project to ensure that you feel like you are with me in spirit during each initiative. Whether you have donated time or money, both resources are equally valuable and we want you to be fully involved in the progress of each initiative.

Thank you Amir and Beenie
