I am going to do the 40hr Famine this year, however rather than give the money I raise to World Vision (not taking anything away from them) I have decided to donate it to the children I worked with in South Africa last year.
Some of you will you know that I went to South Africa last year, more specifically to a little place called St Lucia. The area of St Lucia has a 90% AIDS rate, many of the children won't live to the age of 30. We built a house for a Grand Mother and her 8 grand children who's house got destroyed in a storm. The children we worked with at the local school and day car centre/ orphanage would often go without food, sometimes for days at a time.
These kids touched my heart in a way I will never be able to explain.
So I'm asking for you to sponsor me on my little quest. Any amount is greatly appreciated. At this point I'm still negotiating the best way to organize the money collection and final donation with the volunteer company I travelled with once I've worked this out I will update the page for you all. In the mean time check out their website for more info on the amazing work they do:
