Story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am leaving for the chittagong hilltracts in Bangladesh on the 7th of may with a scheme called ICS. As part of this is have to raise 800 pounds for the charity. This money does not sponser me to go abroad, i am paid for by the department for international development and all of the money raised goes to supporting VSO and the great work they do. 

My specific work in bangladesh involves working with uk volunteers and local volunteers on the Water Sanitation and Hygeine programe. This includes manual tasks such as building wells and latrines, and community tasks such as teaching children the importance of hand washing and about the spread of disease. We aim to make a sustainable difference in a country where it is desperately needed. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
