Catherine Fitzsimons Expedition to Peru 2019

A word from the Vine Trust...

Catherine is fundraising in aid of their Vine Trust School Expedition to Peru. Vine Trust School Expeditions are an opportunity for students to make a real and lasting difference to Peruvian communities living in poverty. Working closely with our in-country partners, volunteers collaborate on 2 projects, building small classroom units for children and parents in the Lima shanty town of Chorillos, and maintaining buildings and supporting young people living at the New Hope Children's Home in Arequipa - providing shelter, security and hope, and empowering communities to achieve a brighter future.

Donations made through this page will contribute towards the cost of Catherine's expedition, including international flights, accommodation, food, in-country transport, and the purchase of construction materials and resources. Any additional funds raised will go towards future Vine Trust construction projects and the development of Vine Trust's programmes.

Many thanks for supporting Vine Trust – together we are helping to support vulnerable communities through effective and sustainable development.

Please note: Vine Trust does not accept responsibility for the fundraising activities of persons fundraising in aid of their expedition or the Trust. Any views expressed on this page are solely those of the named fundraiser and/or their donors, not Vine Trust.

    We choose to go to Peru, not because it is easy, but because it is hard. We choose to do the other thing...well, not me personally! Well done, Caffers!
