Raise donations for Camps International Ecuador 2013 - Abigail Craig whenever you shop online

About our cause

I am 16 years old and in my first year of sixth form in Cowley International College, St.Helens. Next summer I'm hoping to travel to Ecuador for 4 weeks with 8 other students from Cowley with an organization called Camps International. In order to embark on this once in a life time expedition, every student must fundraise £3890 each. This money will pay for flights, accommodation, insurance etc. Whilst in Ecuador, I'll be aiming to : · Raise the educational standards of developing communities within a rural district of Ecuador · Raise the living standards of developing communities, within a rural district of Ecuador · Assist with ongoing wildlife conservation programmes to preserve biodiversity and protect vulnerable habitats.I'll be achieving these objective by participating in ongoing conservation initiatives to protect valuable wildlife and the environment, including supporting spectacled bear conservation and supporting an animal rescue centre in the Amazon rainforest. I'll also be learning to speak basic Spanish to be able to interact with the communities, and perhaps even teaching local children English. I'll be taking part in important community projects, like renovating buildings, painting buildings, or even building a new building. On top of all of that, I'll be trekking up Cotapaxi National Park, one of the worlds tallest volcanoes!
