Welcome to my fundraising page, I hope you will feel inspired to donate to this worthy cause - The Children of Nepal.
Nepal is a beautiful mountainous country where many famous rivers have their source. Despite this, clean water is in desperately short supply for most of the population. Last year 13,000 children died as a result of illnesses caused by drinking unsafe water. UNICEF is working with it's partners to provide and maintain additional taps and clean water outlets in Nepal. A lack of clean water and sanitation facilities means that children are getting sick or even dying. In some cases children are missing out on an education due to illness, which is the best chance thye have of building a better life.
I will be participating in the UNICEF Trek for the Children of Nepal in May 2009 and hoping to raise in excess of £3,500 for this worthwhile cause. All monies raised from your sponsorship of my trek will go to this worthy cause as I will be funding all my travel and expedition costs.
