I've raised £1000 to invest in education programmes in rural schools in Africa, to create sustainable change to young boys and girls

Organised by Amber Murray
I am spending ten weeks this summer in either Kenya or Uganda, designing and implementing an effective investment programme for young boys and girls in their school. EPAfrica works with partner schools in rural East Africa to improve the quality of education for students. Investing in textbooks, installing water tanks, setting up health centres all aim to create a better environment for schools as part of a grass roots initiative. I will live with 2/3 other volunteers with a host family for the summer.
