Story


Hi there!

As some of you may know I am going on a trip to the Gambia in January 09 with the University of Sheffield Sociological Studies department, to go and support the charity Village Aid. They do a lot of great work empowering local people in the more rural areas of the Gambia, as well as other countries in Africa. Check them out here:

www.villageaid.org

Once I come back from my trip I am hoping to be organising some fundraising events for Village Aid which I hope you will be able to get involved in. This is so that we can make some donations to the charity as a whole, and to the villages we will be visiting in the Gambia.
In the meantime though, if you fancy donating a little bit as a sort of 'sponsorship' for my trip, please donate below

"Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Village Aid gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation."

Let me know if you want any more info on the Gambia, Village Aid or what I will be doing on my trip!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page,

Hannah xxx
