Fundraising for my 1 year volunteer placement in Namibia

Mairi Todd is raising money for Project Trust

Sponsored Walk

Project Trust is a Scottish-registered educational charity providing young people in the UK and Europe with international volunteering experiences. Project Trust Volunteers are based in projects in Africa, Asia or Latin America for 12 or 8 months supporting teaching or youth development work. Empowering global citizens Project Trust’s aim is to empower generations of young people to act as responsible and active global citizens. We support ethical, long-term volunteering experiences which enable the Volunteers to make a meaningful contribution to their host community whilst building knowledge, skills and cultural intelligence. Project Trust works with a small group of Volunteers each year, allowing the staff team to know each individual’s skills and interests. This allows us to place Volunteers in projects where they can get the most out of the experience and enables our staff to provide tailored support to each young person. Project Trust strives to be open to all young people with the desire, motivation and aptitude required to benefit from a long-term, ethical, volunteering placement

Story

Hello everyone! From August this year, I am very excited to be doing a volunteer placement in Namibia for 1 year with Project Trust. While I am there, I will be helping with teaching, sports and extracurricular activities in a rural primary school. In order to go, I need to raise £7450 and to do this, I am organising a bake sale and a pub quiz night. I have also been given a few very generous grants from charities. My main sponsored event, however, is a climb up the 3rd-5th highest munros in Scotland in 1 day. I will be attempting this challenge in June and any donations would be greatly appreciated.
