Fundraising for Charity - I'm Going Abroad!

Posted on the 15 November 2012 by Humanwriter @roseforman

Dear Blog Readers,
I have just found out that I am going abroad next year to do volunteering for 10 weeks! It is very exciting, as yet I don't know where I am going- it could be South America or Africa!

BUT I need your help to raise £800 for the charity! The charity is called Progressio and it takes people (like me!) to developing countries and gets us to help the local organisations and the local people. I could be doing anything from helping organize a HIV testing day in Zimbabwe or helping a women's political group get recognised in Honduras!As you all probably know, I did Politics and Human Rights at Uni so this is a great opportunity to put my skills into practise! I'll be a proper humanitarian in no time...I have created an online donation page which is totally secure and commission free! Please click HERE if you'd like to donate. Please help me raise £800 to keep this charity going, it's a very expensive business sending people abroad, but without charities like Progressio disadvantaged people in some of the poorest countries in the world wouldn't have any representation.Any help or fundraising ideas would be much appreciated!

From when I went to Nouakchott - Mauritania, East Africa
