Story

Hello Everyone. As some of you already know, I am heading off to India in April with the charity, Saphara.

I am going out to India in a cohort of students and lexturers to teach English to disadvantaged children, giving them a chance to break the poverty cycle.

The charity is covering the cost of the flights and accommodation for the duration of the trip, so all money raised through fundraising is going directly to the schools in India sponsored by Saphara. This will include funding schools, teacher support, development of facilities and funding school uniforms among other basic requirements, Any donation, big or small, will have an immense impact on the lives of these children and is much appreciated.

To incentivise you to donate, I have ensured that any donation over £2 will give you the chance of winning a cash prize.

- A donation of £2 will give you a 1 in 1000 chance of winning £100 and a donation of £5 will give you a 1 in 250 chance of winning £100 as part of my 001-999 draw. - A donation of £10 will enter you into a last man standing competion where you could win £150.

Be sure to leave your name with your online donation so you can be entered into the correct competitions. I would like to thank you in advance for your support.
