Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am going to Mozambique later this year with Habitat for Humanity under the (OVC) 'Orphans and Vulnerable Childrens Programme' having been inspired by team leaders Neil Reid and Debbie Vincent who have been part of previous trips to this country.

We have great hopes to construct somewhere in the region of 15-20 houses and help a new generation of children, this of course depends on the support we receive before we leave.

The communities we will  work with are some of the poorest in the region, with Aids affecting many. The OVC programme has made a huge impact on these communities, providing many with not only housing, but inheritance rights, land ownership and presents income generation activites for those most in need. 

Please let me know if you have any questions about the trip, I'd only be too glad to answer them.. I can be contacted through facebook or on email at rmcconkey03@qub.ac.uk. If you want to talk to me in person about the trip or see more photos of last years trip, I'd only be too happy to hear from you, just send me a mail with your details and I will give you a call back.

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

 

So please dig deep and donate now.
