Story

I am raising money to fund an expedition to Ghana with the Sabre Charirtable Trust, to help develop a school in the small town of Dwabor.  Dwabor is a village with:

 

A single main road winding through the centre

Well trodden paths branching off

Single roomed houses

1,000 people, the majority being children


I want to be a part of this expedition because it is giving people an education and a better start in life. I underdstand how hard life can be and I want to have the chance to make someone elses life better. It is also an amazing opportunity to be a part of a sustainable developement which will change peoples lives

Either of these will benefit the students, which is the main focus of our trip.
