Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I’m really excited to tell you that I have been selected to volunteer overseas with YCare International on an International Citizen Service placement. ICS works with communities that have specifically requested their help. It also aims to inspire young people in the UK and overseas to become active citizens who are passionate about long term community development.

It's important to note that ALL of the costs involved in my volunteering are covered by government, such as flights, insurance, food and accommodation. Any and all donations go directly to the charity to have a true impact right on the frontline of poverty.

As part of my commitment to long term changes,  the first part of my placement is a challenge to raise £800 towards the work of YCare International and their ICS partners. The money raised will go towards enabling the overall costs of ICS, ensuring they can to continue sending youth volunteers to the developing world to make a lasting difference in disadvantaged communities. 

Whether it is 50p or £50, I'm incredibly grateful for any support, and will definitely be sharing my stories and experience when I return in April 2017. Any contribution from you will make a real difference to the lives of people in developing countries, so please dig deep!

JustGiving sends donations directly to the chosen charity, in this case, YCare International, ensuring every penny given goes to the right place.

Thanks for your support!
