My Story
Hello everyone! Thank you so much for visiting my fundraisng page! This year I am part of a programme of fundraising and charity promotion with some of my fellow students from Royal Holloway, who will eventually climb Mount Killimanjaro in August on this year!
The charity that we are raising money for is called Dig Deep, which aims to provide clean water and safe toilets for communities in Kenya. Too many people in Kenya do not have access to clean water and sanitation, which leads to the spread of desease and malnourishment. This has a negative impact on childrens' education and on adults' working and earning for their families. It effects young girls in particular, as 57% of girls do not make it to secondary education, as the lack of hygienic facilities at schools makes it difficult for them to attend during their period. Dig Deep aims to build safe and reliable toilets with clean water for these communities, as well as provide training programmes for health and hygiene, so that people can understand how to prevent the spread of diseases. Menstrual hygiene training is also given to the communities, correcting any misinformation and enabling girls to continue their education when on their period.
I would be so greatful for any donations, as all the money raised is going to be invested in clean and safe facilities in Kenya. It is very important that we help others as much as we can, which is why this mission is very important to me.
Thank you so much for reading this and for supporting me!
