Hi my name is Emily Bond, I am sixteen years old and studying level 3 Childcare at college. I am currently studying to reach my long term goal of becoming a primary school teacher.

At college I am making good progress and have earned the opportunity to go to Vietnam to work in an orphanage and support people in the local community suffering from the effects of agent orange, which was used in the war. The trip will take place in June 2018, for two weeks.

College is funding half the trip and I need to raise £800 for the other half. I have a part time job which is helping me reach this but without other people's support I doubt I will reach £800.

This trip would mean the world to me because I want to make a change in people's lives and it would help me in my future role as a primary school teacher.

Any donations would be gratefully appreciated, thank you x
