Story
in September I will be beginning a gap year with BMS (Baptist Mission Society) Action Teams. I will be part of small group going to Uganda, based in the city of Gulu. I will spend six months here working with an educational co-operative providing activities for children and extra reading support. I will also help with a local agricultural project which supports farmers to develop sustainable methods. Lastly, near the end of my placement I will probably spend some time working with youth offenders in Kampala. Following this six-month placement I will then tour the UK to tell people about the work e.g. at local community events and churches.
In order to go I need to raise £5,500 which will go towards the projects I will be helping at and my general living costs when I am abroad.
I am planning on a range of fundraising initiatives:
1. Auction of promises - Taking place online from the 15th to 21st May, more details to follow.
2. Sponsored Bike Ride - I am currently planning a route to undertake in late June/July.
3. Samuel: The Wright Way to Cook - I am compiling a cookbook with my favourite hints and tips to sell to raise money.
