Tanzania 2027 - Matthew Bon

A word from the Vine Trust...

Julie is fundraising in aid of their Vine Trust School Expedition to Tanzania. Vine Trust School Expeditions are an opportunity for students to make a real and lasting difference to Tanzanian communities living in poverty. Working closely with our in-country partners, volunteers construct individual family homes for some of the world's most vulnerable people - providing shelter, security and hope, and empowering communities to achieve a brighter future.

Donations made through this page will contribute towards the cost of Julie'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.

Fundraising Activity

We are fundraising money for a once in a lifetime trip to Tanzania. We will be helping to fund the building and help to build homes in the town of Moshi. The trip will be in the summer of 2027 and will last 2 weeks, to try and help the local community by helping them have a safe place to live.

How I'm raising money

To raise money for this trip in the month of June this year I will be running 10.5K once a week to have ran a marathon in a month. I will also be doing other organised events with the rest of my group that are going on the trip, so please look out for those events to take place
