Hi all!
I have been selected for a fantastic opportunity within my company @ Tenth Revolution group to visit our corporate charity, St Martin's School.
TRG has worked with St Martin's since 2019, which offers a safe environment & education for around 1,000 of the most vulnerable children in Kibagare.
The School is located in one of the poorest slums in Nairobi, Kenya & has been closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Now it has re-opened, myself and 24 others are visiting 1st March 2023 for 4 days.
While we are there, we will be:
- Involved in Mentoring & Tech Classes for secondary school students
- Sports, arts and crafts with the children
- Assisting in a Feeding program to help feed up to 3,000 children
- Taking the children on a trip to the local animal sanctuary
- Visiting the local families at their homes and meeting the children sponsored by my TRG colleagues.
My goal is to raise £2,000, which will be used towards my flight, accommodation & transport to Kenya & includes a £1,000 donation that will go directly to St Martin's.
To raise funds for the donation and travel, I have racked my brains on how I can hit my target and thought, why not start with my weaknesses: fitness and beer!!
I am pledging to walk/run/cycle/crawl 400k over November and December, followed by Dry January.
This will be a challenge for me as I am certainly not the fittest, but donating to the school can be life-changing for these children.
I really do appreciate all donations, no matter how big or small, and I would like to say a big thank you in advance to anyone who can!
Love to you all, Jodie x
