Ready to see a part of the world you never thought you would? Wanna visit Africa and try to make a difference, no matter how small? Wanna do it all for free? All you have to do is donate $10 (ONE entry) or $25 here (THREE entries), just a few coffees or a pizza, to make a difference to these families lives. And with that, you’ve entered our competition to be flow to join me and a buddy in West Africa, in November, to volunteer for a couple of weeks. All expensese paid.

I mentioned it last month guys – I’m spending the rest of this year in Africa, en route to visiting every country in the world. My friend Josh and I wanna bring someone along to travel and volunteer for a couple of weeks in Senegal and the Gambia FOR FREE and even better, we want to donate a large chunk of cash to the awesome charity we’re working with – SenExperience+.

So here’s how it works. With your help, we want to donate a minimum of $2000USD to Sen Experience+, so all we need is 100 people to donate $25 each, very doable. More than that, for every $10 YOU donate, you’re entered into our draw to be flown to Senegal and volunteer/backpack with us for two weeks. SO DONATE HERE AND HELP THE KIDS AND WOMEN IN SENEGAL, AND ENTER OUR COMPETITION

DATES?

November 15th to November 30th

PRICE?

One entry with each $10 donated, three with $ 25. Enter as many times as you’d like. Please write your name in the box when you donate 🙂

COUNTRIES?

Senegal and the Gambia

THE EXPERIENCE?

Over two awesome weeks, backpacks strapped on, we’ll be overlanding from Kolda, in southern Senegal through the Gambia and back into Senegal finishing up in their Capital, Dakar.

During the two weeks:

We’ll be spending time at an orphanage
Staying with a selection of host families (with the money going directly to them)
Donate and oversea the market project we’re working on
Take part in English classes delivered by a local teacher. Exchange ideas and teaching methods.
Later in the afternoon, you will visit a computer training centre set up by a Swedish NGO.
Visit the nursery and watch the kids singing
visit a women’s training centre focused on agriculture, where women are taught how to improve their crops and increase their harvests.

Oh yeah, and you’ll get to see this stuff too:

So please please please share this on facebook, tweet about it, and even better, give up the pizza this week, skip a few beers and donate $10 to the cause. it’s really, really worth it. Donate here.

Your Donations Fund Something Special

It doesn’t matter if you are a true adventurer or just a weekend getawayer. As long as you have an open mind and positive attitude you could be in for an experience that will change your life.

The funds we raise will partially pay for the winner to join on this incredible journey and the rest will be donated directily to the orphanages, schools, projects and communities that we interact with along the way.
