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 VSO (Voluntary Services Overseas) 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.

The first part of my placement is a challenge to raise £800.00 towards the work of VSO 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.

Amongst other things, I’ll be organising a coffee morning in my workplace as well as raffles and you can keep track of how I get on here on my Justgiving page or on my Facebook blog - The Diary of a Quarter Lifer. Any contribution from you will make a real difference to the lives of people in developing countries, and every single penny counts, no matter how small. 

Thanks for your support!
