About our cause

On the 7th of July, I will be embarking on an Outlook Expedition through school to Madagascar (similar to World Challenge). For the 28 days which I will spend there, I will be volunteering with the Feedback Madagascar project which aims to improve the futures of children in the poorest communities, helping address the short and long-term challenges of lack of education and educational facilities. As part of the Feedback Madagascar project, I will be working in the remote village of Namoly in the central highlands of Madagascar. Work here will involve a combination of manual voluntary work, such as renovating the school or other community facilities. During my stay in Madagascar, I will also be spending some time in Antananarivo working at the Akany Avoko Children's Home organising activities and games for some of the 120 children there. The home provides a home, an education and a healthy life for Madagascars most deserving but neglected youth. The home's mission is to protect the rights of children and young people and provide a refuge for those who have been forgotten by society. This expedition will be an amazing opportunity for me to not only meet local people and understand how different their life is compared to my own, but also to explore a rich fertile and beautiful environment and culture which is a very big contrast to anything I have experienced before. As part of this challenge, we have to raise money for building materials and other essentials to make this project successful. Any help you feel you can give me in raising funds for my expedition would be hugely appreciated
