Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Our aim is to raise money to create a feeding programme for Sasenyi Primary school in the Rukinga Sanctuary on the outskirts of Tsavo National Park, Kenya. Since the post election troubles in Kenya there has been an acute shortage of maize. Currently the situation is very bleak for children at the school. They have one small meal at night in their homes. The next morning they have a cup of water before walking to school. For some of them this can be up to 2 hours. At school they have nothing all day, not even water, before returning home again in the evening. The programme would aim to feed the 600 pupils at the primary school, aged roughly from 7 - 15, and 200 under 7's from the pre primary school.

Camps International Trust has a team of 15 runners. The minimum sponsorship we are looking for is £350. This would feed all 800 children for half of the school year. £700 from every runner would provide a meal for every child every day they attend school for a whole year. Each kilometre we run will add another week to the feeding programme.

I hope you will find the time and inspiration to make a donation.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Camps International Trust 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.


Thanks
