Hello my name is Madeleine Sloan, I’m fundraising to go on an expedition to Peru in 2020 when I will be in year 11.
Whilst I’m out there I will be helping change less fortunate lives by building new school classrooms or kindergartens to enable the children to have an education, installing filtered water stations improving the health and wellbeing of the community and building greenhouses, to plant fruit and vegetables so they will have fresh fruit and vegetables all year round.
I will also be stopping deforestation by planting trees and helping with farming. This will be a great experience for me as I will develop new skills. I won’t just be helping children and adult’s life, I’ll also be helping the animals by growing fruit trees, digging ditches for elephants and other animals to drink water and stop them becoming dehydrated.
The company that I’m going with, Camps International, has created a positive impact to over 120,000 lives and I will like to help improve more people’s lives.
