Story
Hi, my name is Ben and I'm fourteen years old. I have been given a fantastic opportunity to travel to Ecuador in the summer of 2020 with Camps International. This opportunity will allow me to volunteer in underprivileged rural communities to raise standards in three main areas:
Raising Educational Standards
Raising Living Standards
Assist with ongoing wildlife conservation to preserve biodiversity & protect vulnerable habitats
I will be able to experience first hand the different and challenging environment locals have to deal with on a daily basis. I will be 'getting stuck in' to manual work and helping the children with English. As well as improving the quality of life for these communities I will also get an opportunity to complete my PADI open water dive course.
In order for me to take part in such a fabulous opportunity I am having to fundraise towards the cost of the trip which is just over £4000.00. I will be doing several local fundraising events also. I would be really grateful if anyone would be so kind to donate to my fund and help me on my 'trip of a lifetime'.
