Hi All,
I received some amazing news that I have been selected as part of a small team that are going to Kenya in June 2015 with a charity AOL support called Free the Children. Over the last few years AOL and Free the Children have worked with local communities in Kenya to improve infrastructure and services by focusing on 5 pillars:
1) Sanitation
2) Health
3) Education
4) Alternative Incomes
5) Food & Agriculture
I am lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with
communities to educate them about the 5 pillars and how it can help
their day to day lives without changing the cultural values they live
by.
In 2014 Team Kenya raised £12,000 and helped to build teachers
accommodation at a school while also helping in activities such as
bringing water up from the river with the Mamas and making traditional
Massai warrior weapons.
In 2015 Team Kenya aim to return to the school the 2014 AOLer’s
worked at and start a new project of our own to help build a much
needed surgical wing of the Baraka Health Clinic. To help make this
happen we aim to raise £14,000 as a team and the good news is that
every pound/ dollar we raise will be matched by AOL UK.
There will be fundraising plans set up here in London by team Kenya but this is my personal contribution towards the overall £14,000.
Although I can’t take you to Africa with me, you can be part of the journey alongside me by donating to this amazing cause and help my team make a positive change in Kenya this year.

Thanks for your time
Don
