Compared to countries in sub-Saharan Africa, Morocco's poverty level is low, yet still affect a large percent of the population; up to 30% live in poverty.
Rural areas still struggle for easy access to basic needs such as clean water, sanitation, healthcare and essential basic educational needs.
Child labour is still an issue in Morocco, with thousands of children engaged in child labour. Children who have to work typically do not get the education they need, meaning their future prospects are likely to be poor.
In Morocco's town and cities, the number of children sleeping on the streets is said to be increasing, UNICEF states that over 6,000 children were abandoned in 2008. Approximately 650,000 children have been orphaned and grown up without the care of their parents.
I will be spending 2 weeks volunteering in small children's homes, baby orphanages and teaching English to young children in schools. Trying to give some disadvantaged children a childhood I will be performing swimming lessons, camping trips and doing outdoor activities and sports.
All of your kind donations, big or small, will help fund travel expenses, but mainly to buy toys, colouring books, education material, books, sports equipment etc, to help children make the most out of their childhood.
Any donations exceeding my goal will be put towards upgrading schools, children's homes and orphanages, to keep as many kids off of the streets as possible.
Your donations could make a huge difference to making just one child's world a much happier place.
