Story

Hello!!

I'm Jamie, and I have recently volunteered to go to Nicaragua to help local people get clean water, and adequate sanitation in their villages; because at the moment, they live in shanty shitholes. In order to get there, I need your help/loving to raise £800.

For 10 weeks (Oct-Dec) I will be living with 1 other volunteer in very basic conditions with a Nicaraguan family, integrating myself into village life, and working alongside the locals to achieve set goals. Hopefully my plumbing background will stand me in good stead and I can actually (cliché alert) make a difference? Yep - went there.

To prepare myself I will be learning Spanish intensively because that's what they speak over there. And may also bankrupt myself purchasing bulk-loads of sun block, because I've got little bitch ginger skin.

So any donations, no matter how small shall be greeted with utter joy and delight and will be greatly appreciated. If I see you out, you will be rewarded with a famous Jamie BIG HUG (It's like uncomfortably long - but you will feel cherished).

Lots & lots of love, and big thanks to you all,

Jamie xxx


Ps. This is actually serious, despite my less than serious approach, and I'm hoping you guys support me. I really will appreciate it.
