We improve standards of education in Africa to ensure children get a quality education

Story

 

Since 1992, the HITCH TO MOROCCO has been Link Community Development's biggest fundraiser and has enabled them to do the fantastic work that they do. Their mission- to work with government and communities to improve the quality of education in Africa. As their name may suggest, their aim is to help developing communities reach a higher standard of living.  They currently work in rural districts of Ethiopia, Ghana, Malawi, South Africa, and Uganda, and there is demand for them to extend their work to other countries. Link also works with schools in England & Wales, Ireland, Scotland and the USA. They build support for development and raise awareness of important global issues through their Link Schools Programme, as well as raising funds and supporting their work in sub-Saharan Africa.
Their work is incredibly important, and to support them in doing this I am hitch-hiking 1200 miles from England to Morocco this Easter, along with my good friends Freya and Jamie! In order to do the hitch I need to raise £375 and 1,200 miles is a looong way, so I would be very grateful if all you lovely people could contribute a little to this fantastic cause. I know a lot of you will be skint students, but absolutely anything you can contribute, be it 50p or £5 will go a long way. Thanks guys!
