Story
Hi, my name is Jessica Robinson and I am a 16-year-old student currently studying for my GCSE’s at Magdalen College School in Brackley. In the summer of 2019 I will be going on a 30-day expedition to Africa (Namibia, Zambia and Botswana) along with 21 other students from my school.
This is no ordinary school trip because, as a team, myself and the other students plan every aspect, from the initial itinerary and travel plans down to finances and budgeting.
The expedition consists of three phases: the trek, project and adventure phases. The project phase will involve assisting in a local rural school, teaching and interacting with the children alongside developing their school facilities.
Our main goals we want to achieve from the expedition are:
• To step outside of our comfort zone;
• Immerse ourselves in different cultures;
• Meet and help local children and communities;
• Experience animals in their natural habitat before it is too late.
Over the next year I will be fundraising in many ways in order to raise funds for this expedition. I have already started raising money by selling products online and have arranged a Christmas Open House event for the local community.
The overall cost for me to take part in this expedition is £4,400 and it is completely self-funded.
I would be very grateful for any support and donations towards this amazing volunteering opportunity.
Many thanks, Jessica
