<p>So, for those of you who don't know on 8th July 2011 I'm going to Ghana for 10 days with 12 other students from my school. We are doing a community based project in a village outside of the the main towns, Cape Coast. It will involve renovating and further developing the school in the community, a chance to do some teaching and an opportunity to help with anything the community&nbsp; needs us to help with.</p> <p>For&nbsp;each of us to go we have to individually raise &pound;1700!!!! This seems a lot however, this is an invauable opportunity for me to visit a country less developed than our own and try to make a difference. Ideally&nbsp;I am hoping to raise&nbsp;as much as&nbsp;I possibly can&nbsp;this&nbsp;will give&nbsp;me and students the chance to take&nbsp;gifts and supplies over to&nbsp;Ghana to the community we're going to.&nbsp;</p> <p>I hope you can donate and help get me to Ghana, by your giving&nbsp;I am being enabled to go and&nbsp;help a great cause and those less fortunate than ourselves. Even though it seems that i've made the amount that&nbsp;I am required to raise, i am trying&nbsp;to raise as much as&nbsp;I possibly&nbsp;can so please don't be put off and think that&nbsp;I don't need it.&nbsp;No amount is too small, as i've learnt from my fundraising&nbsp;- small amounts add up fast!!!!</p> <p>Thank you so much and&nbsp;I really appreciate it</p> <p>Fi xx</p>
