My name is Dylan Shakespeare, I’m 12 years old and I attend Tiverton high school.

I’ve been chosen to go on a charity mission with my school to Kenya for 11 nights to help with a volunteer project.

I will be helping at a school that has been set up by a charity called, African Adventures. I will be assisting classes, reading stories, preparing meals and playing games and sports.

I’m very excited to have been chosen and after hearing about my Grandads trip to Rwanda and the Congo I understand how much help they need and the difference we can make in there lives.

I have to raise over £2000 to cover my trip so there will be lots of hard work and fundraising. I am writing to you in hope that you may be able to contribute towards my charity funds.

Thank you for reading my letter,

Dylan Shakespeare
