Story
We are heading to Kenya on the 5th of November (next month) with a company called Camps International. We will be there until the 23rd of November and during this time we will be part of a team working to provide essential medical care to many of the people living in rural parts of Kenya who cannot afford to pay for healthcare for themselves, their children or their elderly. It is not uncommon for women in these communities the walk many miles with a sick or injured child in order to reach a medical facility.
At the moment we have paid for all of our volunteering costs ourselves. We are now hoping that some of our lovely friends and family will help us finish our bid to get there. The funds we raise will go towards funding this amazing opportunity and a donation to the Kenyan people, thus helping those who live in the daily poverty line.
Any help would be very much appreciated. We will of course provide photos and updates of our time there, allowing you to see where your money has gone.
Thank you in advance.
All our love,
Catriona and Gemma.
