Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On Sunday 7th July I will be doing a catapult bungee jump at Bray Lake, being accelerated towards the sky, over 100ft into the air with nothing more than a body harness and a single bungee cord!

Me and Beccy are raising vital funds for Stand by Me as we prepare for our trip to the Centre Educativo Cristiano School in Guacamayal, Colombia in August.

The school started off small, providing 53 children with a basic education, a slice of bread and a glass of sugar water. Today, Stand By Me is educating 309 of the poorest children in the area who would otherwise be trapped in poverty, with no opportunity to learn. Instead, these children are learning life changing skills, receiving a quality education and a hot meal each day! Take a look at Rosa's story here: https://www.standby.me/case-studies/rosa

In late 2010, a derelict building was purchased and is in the process of being completely renovated into a new ool in order to provide a further 100 children with a better future. Currently many classes are taught outside as the vast majority of this building is unsafe. Your donation will be used to help the school as it expands. https://www.standby.me/projects/renovating-a-school-building

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. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please sponser us as me and Beccy prepare to face our fears in aid of Stand by Me and take your donation to Colombia this summer. Thank you!
