Story
My college runs an annual trip to The Gambia where we will teach in the Abuko lower basic school and nursery. The teachers at the school are paid around £360 a year so hopefully, with help, I will be able to smash that amount! This will make a great difference to the children and teachers in this develping country. As well as trying to reach my £1000 target I am also looking forward to learning about the culture in The Gambia and how different it is to ours.
I will also be doing a skydive with my friend Phoebe (who is also helping with fundraising) to help raise enough money. Eventhough I‘m bricking it, im sure it will be worth it. We will pay for the Skydive ourselves and all money donated will go towards the cause.

6 years agoOne last MASSIVE thank you to everyone who contributed to this amazing opportunity. The impact that this trip has made on the students, local people and me is life changing and will never be forgotten. The last 7 days has been so inspiring, the sense of community in Gambian society is something that has rubbed off on me and the group and has taught us all some important life lessons. Even though the trip is over, the changes our effort has made will carry on making a difference. Thank you all so much ❤️ - Max

The money raised makes a massive different to the Abuko lower basic school and Jemus Jammah Junkung Nursery as well as the society in the local area. Speaking to the local people really gives you an understanding of how big of a difference our support can do for each individual over there. This is one of the newly built classrooms and the new tiles that are being put in which is paid for through the money raised
