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
