Story
This year I went to Africa (Zimbabwe) to volunteer and never did I expect to get ivolved as much as I did in the community. I went over with the thought in my head "I have to make a difference," I just wanted to make the most out of my time there. When I got home I realised the street boys were the ones who made a difference to me. They are the most grateful people you would ever come across. A lot of the boys while I was there were so eager to learn and do lessons it shocked me. I never expected that.
So I have decided to put two brothers who have been on the street for 5 years through school and get the education they want. The oldest being 18years old and the youngest being 15years old. It really is a heart touching situation when these boys are talking to you and crying in front of you because all they want to do is go to school like everyone else. So why should I not help them when, like many of us, can?
While I'm putting these two brothers through school I'm also setting up arrangements to help get them off the street so they have shelter and somewhere to study and do homework. I'm so happy with the progress so far but I knew I would never be able to do this on my own. I have started this crowd funding page for that matter, I'm trying to reach out to as many people as I can.
With the funds I raise it will be going towards paying per term school fees, uniforms for the two boys and basic school essentials e.g. books, pens.
Together we can change their life, so let's do it!
