Hi, my name is Thea. I have a goal to get to Malawi and help both the community and the children there in summer 2019. Today 6.5 million people in Malawi are going hungry, that is more than the total population of Scotland. Drought, erratic rainfall and devastating floods have led to life threatening situations. Harvests have failed and prices have soared, not only this but the lack of education and facilities mean that they will probably never be able to get out of poverty. By supporting my cause you can help!

While I am in Malawi I will be helping the local community and working on projects that will improve their education. I am really passionate about raising the money myself so that I can see the impact it makes on the community and so I have made a difference. I feel as if the crisis in Malawi isn't made as aware as other cases around the world and that is why I want to go and help them to make a difference.

In Malawi we will be carrying out a number of community projects that include:

* improving local amenities

* installing clean water facilities

* helping educate the local children

* constructing village houses and schools

* work to save the local animals and their habitats

* work on sustainable farming projects

so please help me reach my goal, I assure you it will make a huge impact on the community! thank you !
