Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
In June I will volunteer for 12 weeks on a development programme in Ghana. This is part of International Citizen Service (ICS), which brings young people together to fight poverty and make a difference where it is needed most.
I’ll be working alongside volunteers from Ghana, on a project that supports entrepreneurs and enterprises, helping them grow their businesses to generate income, sustainable economic growth and alleviate poverty. ICS works with communities that have specifically requested their help. It also aims to inspire young people in the UK and overseas to become active citizens who are passionate about long term community development.
I need to raise £800. The money raised will go towards supporting the work of Challenges Worldwide and their ICS partner organisations, enabling ICS to continue sending youth volunteers to the developing world to make a lasting difference in disadvantaged communities.
I’m going to run my first half marathon on the 24th April and you can keep track of how I get on both on this page and on my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/VivienICS/.
Any contribution from you will make a real difference to the lives of people in developing countries, so please donate, every little helps!
Thank you for your support!
