Link Community Development - Hitch 2010 · 23 April 2010 ·
What's popping gangsters?
Firstly, thanks for getting this far. Secondly, here's the deal: my friend Dean and I are setting off on a LADS WORLD TOUR ROAD TRIP '010 in the first couple of weeks of April for general fun-times and frivolities. We'll being travelling to Morocco - a whole other continent and about 1500 miles away from our homes! "So what?" I hear you ask! And here's what. In a dramatic twist, neither of us will be the driver for this particular road trip - instead, we will be putting our lives in the hands/cars of complete strangers, sweet-talking our way into various cars, lorries and boats to make the voyage across England, France, Spain and eventually - the Big M..(Morocco). This variation of commuting has, before now, been referred to as 'hitchhiking'. Why spend a week which could be otherwise be spent camped in The Inn, comfortably within the luxurious refines of the Harpenden Bubble, to trawl our way across Europe to a continent in which it has been rumoured some parts don't even have access to Facebook?! Here's why:
Indeed, we will be undergoing these hardships in the name of charity, in the hope of alleviating some of the struggles of underdeveloped African regions. Link Community Development is an awesome charity which specialises in this area, particularly in improving education and making it much more accessible for those little African kiddies, and adults - a key step in the fight against poverty. We need to each raise a minimum of £350 for the charity. Dean and I will be forking out around £150 each on top of that from our despairingly bare, student-like pockets in order to piece together meals along the way and places to stay. So what we kindly ask of you, is a donation of any sum of money you can afford, to help us reach our £350 goal. We'll even let you off donating when it comes to Red Nose Day if you're generous.
To earn even more good deed points, you should also donate on Dean's page: http://www.justgiving.com/deanbygatemoroccohitch
It would be proper sweet of you to help us and the little children of Africa. They need a proper education, before it gets too late and Madonna/Brangelina give them an American education. Thanks.
Peace out.
