Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've only gone and got myself a placement volunteering for Voluntary Service Overseas via the International Citizen Service programme! Excited doesn't begin to describe what I'm feeling right now!

The project I will be doing is "Youth for Community Development" intervention through working with local communities of west Lamjung, Nepal. This will help raise awareness on sexual and reproductive health issues and also in improving livelihood outcome for adolescents and their families. The intervention will be focused on 6 schools and their catchment areas. I will also be working to strengthen organizational capacity of women enterprise in the community and market linkage. The range of activities will engage, inspire and motivate young people and community groups to make a significant change in the community.

Being part of this project and having the opportunity to make a real change to people's lives, means the world to me. I will be planning fundraising events, so keep yours eyes peeled and come along!

I'd also just like to say that the money I raise goes directly back to the charity, so they can continue to implement these projects in poverty stricken countries. It doesn't go to pay for my flights, visas, vaccinations etc... This is all about making a change to people's lives.
