My name is Maja Sikora. I am an 18 year old student studying Spanish, Russian and French at the University of Glasgow and I have recently become a member of an international humanitarian charity called First Aid Africa. The charity sends groups of trained volunteers to rural parts of Africa in order to provide sustainable first aid equipment and education in first aid to the locals and give them a set of skills to be able to stabilise a casualty - or potentially save a life - before the emergency services can arrive.

I NEED YOUR HELP!

In order to be able to partake in this amazing opportunity, I have a goal of £1600 to reach by summer 2019 to help fund the charity and allow me to travel to Africa and share my knowledge and skills in first aid with locals of all ages. I further aim to raise money through doing various sponsored activities and events, alongside working throughout the semester and holidays, such as sponsored hill walking and beach cleaning.

For the once in a lifetime chance to be able to make a difference and leave a real, positive mark, I would be forever grateful for any donation - not matter how big or small - from anyone, which will allow me to make this possible and make a difference to a really deserving community.

Below is a link to the official website of the charity for any extra information.

Thank you.
