Heather Christie is raising money for Project Trust

Gap year Fundraising · 24 August 2022

Project Trust is a Scottish-registered educational charity providing young people in the UK and Europe with international volunteering experiences. Project Trust Volunteers are based in projects in Africa, Asia or Latin America for 12 or 8 months supporting teaching or youth development work. Empowering global citizens Project Trust’s aim is to empower generations of young people to act as responsible and active global citizens. We support ethical, long-term volunteering experiences which enable the Volunteers to make a meaningful contribution to their host community whilst building knowledge, skills and cultural intelligence. Project Trust works with a small group of Volunteers each year, allowing the staff team to know each individual’s skills and interests. This allows us to place Volunteers in projects where they can get the most out of the experience and enables our staff to provide tailored support to each young person. Project Trust strives to be open to all young people with the desire, motivation and aptitude required to benefit from a long-term, ethical, volunteering placement

Story

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

This page's donations will help to fund my gap year volunteering in Honduras with Project Trust. During my time in Honduras, I hope to make a positive contribution to a community by providing education to schoolchildren. Through my gap year, I hope to broaden my horizons and learn more about different cultures around the world. I hope to gain confidence, improve my level of Spanish and meet new people before returning to Scotland to attend university the following year. This opportunity will help me develop my independence and provide experiences that will stay with me for life.

I will be volunteering for this opportunity with Project Trust. Project Trust is a very respected organisation that provides opportunities for young people to volunteer all around the world. More information about Project Trust can be found below.

Any contributions are greatly appreciated. : )
