Hi, I'm Lissy and I've signed up to #dosomethingamazing !!
In the summer of 2019 I'm going to Peru on a school expedition that is probably going to be life changing. I'm spending 4 weeks working on community projects that will help local communities and improve the lives of local people.
The expedition offers huge variety and opportunities for adventure. I'll experience desert, deep canyons, the vast expanses of the Altiplano and life at 3800m above sea level at Lake Titicaca, the world’s highest navigable lake!
I'll spend time and support some of the most ancient civilizations on earth, The Quechua and the Aymara people. Witnessing the local traditions of these people is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. I'll even trek the Salkantay trail to reach the Incan ruins of Machu Picchu, one of the world’s most famous landmark.
The communities we'll visit will be very diverse but the aim of the project work is to improve their standard of living.
Projects could be improving school facilities, building greenhouses (malnutrition is widespread), improving sanitation facilities and tourism development. In addition to the community projects, I will also get involved in environmental reforestation projects that address habitat destruction in Peru.
This is the start. I'm just setting up a funding raising page to raise £4,350 for the trip and I could really do with any suport you'd be kind enough to provide me. Every penny counts!!
It would be amazing to get to Peru next year with your support and make a difference to people's lives in Peru.
Thanks xx
