My story
In loving memory of Gert de Jonge
Though he may not have fully appreciated it, Gert made a huge difference for the better to the lives of a great many people that he didn’t even know when he participated in the epic Calum’s Road trip. The Calum’s Road bikers are considered as heroes in the areas surrounding Calum’s Road. If that wasn’t enough, Annette, his widow has asked that donations in his memory be made to Stella’s School Scheme which sponsors children and provides educational resources in the very poor area surrounding Calum’s Road, thus enabling the children to be able to take that first step out of extreme poverty when they finish their education, so even in death Gert continues to help the people of Niamina.
Donations made in memory of Gert will be used to continue developing the educational facilities at Sambel Kunda as a living memorial to a very special man.
Stella’s School Scheme and the people of the villages who benefit from the school send their deepest sympathy and profound thanks to to Gert’s family and have asked us to convey the message that they are very touched that even in this time of great sorrow for the family, they should remember the people of The Gambia.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
