Next summer I'll be travelling to the amazon for 2 weeks to complete essential volunteer work in a local Ecuadorian village.

VESA works in conjunction with villagers in addressing the major issues they face such as the local schools lack of fresh running water, dilapidated classrooms and generally poor infrastructure.Your donation will help to facilitate the means for building bathrooms blocks for indigenous families, restoring the village schools facilities and teaching english to primary school children. I'll be helping firsthand to implement this major community development project, which will encompass construction in addition to educating the community on matters of conservation and sustainability.

Money raised will go towards hiring local skilled trades people to supervise and assist in the building projects, building materials and donations to local organisations so even the smallest donation would be much appreciated!
