My Personal Message
Hey Guys,
Thanks for visiting my personal fundraising page. I'm part of a group of people from Skerries in Co Dublin who have been fundraising in support of Self Help Africa charity's work in the Sodo region of Ethiopia for the last few years. Eight of us are setting out to do this trek this October which is just one of a number of fundraising projects we have going at the moment. It promises to be tough but spectacular and I am funding the cost of the trip myself so ALL money donated will go directly and in full to Self Helps work in Sodo. While out there we will be visiting the project in Sodo itself and meeting with the communities and project workers involved. I would very much appreciate your support in helping me to raise funds for this charity.
Please read a few words about Self Help below and you can also get further details about the Skerries connection to this on our own website www.skerriessodo.ie.
You can donate using the "sponsor me now" button below via credit or debit card. You can be assured that your transaction on the mycharity.ie website is very secure. You will automatically receive an e-mail from me thanking you for your support, and acknowledging the amount of your donation. Any donation no matter how small is hugely appreciated.
Many thanks in advance for your support,
shea |
About my charity
Self Help Africa
Self Help Africa is an international development agency that works at grassroots level tackling hunger and poverty in Africa. We focus our efforts on farming and food production. Why? - because 80% of Africans rely directly on small-scale farming for their survival, and because most land has the potential to grow much much more. We help rural households to grow more food, to diversify farming activities, and to access markets for their produce. We help communities to adapt to climate change, and help women - who do the bulk of the work on most small farms.
For over 25 years Self Help Africa has been working to with rural communities in Burkina Faso, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Togo, Uganda and Zambia. We provide technical support, knowledge, and use a wide range of cost effective and innovative technologies to assist the people we work with to achieve a future that is free from hunger and poverty.
