15km Royal Park Run - For Children in Namibia
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Benji, I am 15 and currently undergoing my GCSE's.
At the same time, I am raising money for a volunteering trip to Namibia.
I will be working at a school, helping to organise and teach lessons, build new equipment and renovate any buildings that are in need of repair.
My school teams up with the charity EHRA on an annual basis to provide this kind of help and support to schools in Namibia. EHRA not only does amazing work supporting local schools, but they also provide valuable work and training around elephant protection. In Namibia there are high rates of poaching which is resulting in a continuous decline in the numbers of these beautiful animals.
The donations from this run will help me reach the fundraising goal of £2400, which I have to raise in order to do this volunteering . I have already raised around about £1000 doing a combination of things like babysitting, dog walking, and selling goodies at school. The £2400 covers the costs for the trip, as well as a donation to the charity's work with the school and the elephants. Donating as little as £5 towards the cause will go a long way. It could buy 500 biro pens for the children which will last the school years and allow for each and every one of the kids to be able to take notes. A donation of £10 will massively contribute to help renovate a run down building - specifically shared living spaces and classrooms. And a generous donation of £100 would directly fund new and much needed play equipment, or could even fund the majority of the costs to renovate a whole classroom.
The support you give will be massively influential towards me and the kids at the school. It would genuinely mean the world to me, and I cannot imagine what it would mean to the young boys and girls at the school.
I will be running a 10 mile run in support of this charity with my friend, who is also raising money for the cause. The run will take place on the 7th of March [07/03/2020], so reaching that goal by then would be incredible. Below you can see the route.
The run will be officiated by one of my teachers at King Alfred School. They will make sure that we do not cheat and we actually complete the run. All donations will be massively appreciated. Every little helps :)
If you decide not to donate, please share this GoFundMe to as many people as possible, whether this be family or friends, we need all the attention we can get so that we can reach this goal!
Thank you :)
