Thank you so much for visiting my page.
Some of you may remember that a while ago I was fundraising to get enough money together to send a Kenyan child to secondary school. Daniel is a child I met three years ago whilst on a teaching placement in his remote village.
When Daniel was aged 4, he witnessed the murder of his father which left him traumatised. Since then his mother has struggled to raise him and his little sister in a single room mud hut, barely being able to afford food for the three of them. In Kenya, there are no state-run secondary schools, and she cannot pay for further education for him. Without secondary school, the likelihood of Daniel earning more than one dollar a day is very slim, and his future looks hopeless.
Well, almost two years later Daniel has been enrolled and has really succeeded in his school, passing all of his yearly exams with flying colours. I have actually been able to watch him progress month by month and have first-handedly seen the incredible prospects our money has given Daniel.
BUT, the pressure is now on to raise enough money to keep Daniel in school for his remaining two years. I am writing this as a plea for you to dig deep into your pockets, to give any amount you can manage and to show your support to me, and most importantly to Daniel. For those of you who have donated already, I, Daniel and his mother cannot thank you enough. You literally have helped give someone hope, someone who has been through so much heartache and tragedy already.
If you feel that you would like to donate again, or for the first time, then please take this opportunity to help a child who so desperately wants to go to school. It will be appreciated more than you can imagine. It is an incredibly easy process, just click on the "donate" button and follow the simple steps. Alternatively, you can contact me at emilycarter31@hotmail.com for more information. If you are taking part in any event where you would like to get sponsorship for Daniel please contact me. That would be absolutely fantastic.
But most importantly, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DON'T PUT OFF DONATING! Don't think " I'll do it later" because you won't! You will go off and forget! So donate now, it really will take two minutes.
Thank you. thank you. thank you.
Emily.
