Thank you for taking the time to look at this page most people seeing this will be friends and family but for those who don't know me my name is Lori Gallagher and welcome to my page, last year I gave up my time and had the pleasure and honour to go to Kenya as a volunteer and work with children who live in very poor conditions. A lot of them have the HIV virus. we done various projects like helping in church run school for the children ,helpng them learn basic english and maths .We also had extra funds and with this we built proper toilets in the school as well as a wash hand basin for the children to wash after toilet use.We also went to an orphanage and did much the same there. My target to raise to do this again is £1700 last year thanks to you all I raised over £2000 the extra money paid for toilets goats and some new desks for the school. Now a lot of people are sometimes curious about exactly where the money goes and I used to be the same however I can reassure you that the company i organised my trip with gave us the choice to donate more or take the money over with us and decide then. We decided to take the money with us and we discussed the extra funding with the Walk Centre we had the choice to where the money went and any materials needed. We went and bought everything ourselves and there were no admin fees the money went directly to the cause. So from the bottom of my heart thank you for helping me achieve this wonderful experience and I hope you will once more be able to help me travel back to Kenya this year in november. Although it is me who will be going I will be representing every single one of you who supports me. We might not be able to change the world these little children live in but for two weeks we can give them some hope and show them that there is a world of people out there that care about them and want to help make their lives that little bit better.
Thank you
Lori :)
