My story

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

 

I would like to ask if you could support an amazing charity called International Service, I shall be doing voluntary work for them from early July to late September this year in Bolivia. 

I shall be working with deprived children in local communities. I can assure you that every penny of what you contribute will go directly to the charity for their front line services.

The project centres around the poverty struck towns of Boliva, the deep routed child poverty, the lack of primary school education going in hand in hand with the high mortality rates of adults means child labour is common and lack of female rights dont allow mothers to easily work and sustain an income to be able to care for large families.  

My goal is to provide children, families and communities in need to create a loving home in which a child can become an independent adult, through our support or working with a trusted partner, specifically on protection, care, education and health.

 

I shall be working with The Foster Care Programme and we aim to build host families for children who have been in a situation who were orphaned or abandoned, for they are placed in a safe environment where conditions are suitable for physical and emotional development and the exercise their rights

I would truly appreciate it if you could donate any amount. I can assue you that all of the donations go directly to alleviating the hardship experienced by those most in need, so all of your money will go towards impacting real people. So, please donate whatever amount you can, anything! It's all for a good cause and I will really appreciate your contribution.  

Thank you very much indeed.
