Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them to any other partners or anything alike, just as they will not send any unwanted e-mails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

We are a group of 3 students based in Denmark currently doing a group project about maintenance of nature for a Cambridge Global Perspectives Exam.

A part of the project is to make a product, therefore we have decided to create a fundraising site, with the money directed to the rainforests in Africa to actually make a real change and not just raise awareness about it.

The charity is working with local people to help protect the Udzunga forest. The forest contains many animals and trees that are unique to the area, that unfortunetely is in great danger of being completely gone in the next ten years.

Your money will go towards helping with sustainability programmes, such as tree planting schemes, full efficient stoves and fuel briquettes (a recycled fuel alternative to wood). 

Our aim is to fundraise at least 300 dollars within a month. We'd be grateful for even the smallest amounts of money, because not only do we need all the help we can obtain, it's for a bigger cause than just a school project and in the end the project will never matter as much as securing natures survival.
