Story

Hello! Thank-you so much for coming to my page to help me fundraise for my chosen charity International Service through International Citizen Service.

This September I am volunteering in Burkina Faso through International Service, working with young disabled individuals. I'll be staying out there for three months, working on a sustainability project with the local community in physical/mental health. Part of my preparation to go (alongside digging out some dusty GCSE french books and trying to encapsulate Rosetta Stone in my french self-tutoring ability) is too fundraise for this wonderful charity, which gives so many individuals the chance to volunteer with international charities- and I am so happy and grateful to all of you who are helping me make this happen by visiting this page. The money I raise does not contribute to my flights or anything to do with me, but to the charity that I am volunteering for, to ensure it can keep running with our support!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. I plan to keep this page updated before I go with all the things I am doing to raise the money (how else do you spend your time after finishing university?!) and, once I am out working in Burkina Faso, with updates of what we are doing and the wonderful people I have met. So stay in touch!
