Story
Thank you for donating to my VSO fundraising page. Many of you will be aware I have recently returned from Bangladesh, having spent 10 weeks living and working within the rural community of Rampal to help develop livelihoods, sexual reproductive health awareness and ties with government authorities. Having seen the benefit VSO volunteers can bring to the lives of others, even just impacting the life of one individual, is what has led me to continue my support for this cause and commit myself to my biggest challenge yet... the London Marathon.
I’m fundraising in support of all VSO funded projects, which benefit around 2 million people every year. By donating to my page you are not paying for just one placement, you are supporting all of VSO’s vital work, enabling them to continue to change the world through the power of volunteering.
I will be hosting and participating in a number of FUN-draising events over the next 6 months to help get everyone involved in my journey and raise awareness of the great work your kind donations are contributing to.
