Story
My name is Ariana Smith, i'm 13 years old, I joined Cubs/Scouts 5 years ago and have enjoyed going ever since. I have had an amazing opportunity arise with Scouts to attend their World Scout Jamboree taking place in North America 2019 and have been chosen as one of the Scouts from my district to go, I was over the moon!
Since it is such a great experience and my one and only chance to travel across the world to meet scouts from all different cultures and try so many new activities, this comes with having to fund my entire trip. In total I need to raise £3,780 to fulfil this dream by 2019!
So far I have asked for money from my family for Birthday's and Christmas' to put towards my trip, I have asked all of my local neighbours if there are any jobs that I can do around the house or garden to earn some money, I am planning to climb Mount Snowden in Wales next year. I am now working weekends to help fund the trip and we have already organised a successful table top sale, disco and a charity Race Night, my mum along with some team mates from work is also doing a tough mudder challenge in August this year.
If you are feeling generous enough to donate money of any amount I would be so appreciative and would like to thank anyone that does, every little helps towards raising my total.

What is a World Scout Jamboree?
The World Scout Jamboree is above all an educational event that brings together the world’s young people to promote peace and mutual understanding and to develop leadership and life skills. The 24th World Scout Jamboree will feature the hallmarks of past world jamboree programs, such as the Global Development Village, the World Scout Centre, a special sustainability initiative, and the socialisation elements that allow participants to make lifelong friends from around the world. Unlike any other youth event, the World Scout Jamboree invites you to surround yourself in diverse global cultures by joining your new Scouting friends at a single destination for 12 unforgettable days. The jamboree experience extends beyond your home—and beyond the boundaries of our countries—to create a global adventure that will last a lifetime!
