Story

ENGLISH BELOW

Hej alle! Som i kan se har jeg planer om at udfoere et faldskaermsudspring for den organisation jeg har arbejdet for siden oktober 2015, foer jeg tager tilbage til Danmark. I den tid har jeg laert meget om det arbejde som Tools for Self Reliance (TFSR) udfoerer. Her i England har de vaerksteder rundt omkring i landet drevet af frivillige, der restaurerer gammelt vaerktoej og symaskiner saa det bliver bogstaveligt talt saa godt som nyt. Derefter sender TFSR varktoejet til Afrika for at hjaelpe folk med at drive en succesfuld forretning. De traener ogsaa folk i professioner inklusiv skraedder og toemrer saa de kan etablere deres egne forretninger og tjene ekstra penge til at forsoerge dem selv og deres familier. 
Jeg vil blive super taknemmelig hvis du vil sponsorere mig. TFSR hjaelper ikke kun folk i Afrika, men har ogsaa stor betydning for folk i UK og andre ligesom mig!  

Hello everyone. As you can probably tell I plan to do a skydive for the organisation I have been working for since October 2015, before going back to Denmark. During this time I have learned a lot about the work of Tools for Self Reliance (TFSR). Here in England they have workshops around the country run by volunteers who refurbish old tools and sewing machines, to make them as good as new.  TFSR then sends the tools to Africa, to help people run successful businesses.  They also train people in trades including tailoring and carpentry so they can establish their own business and earn extra money to  support themselves and their families.
I would be extremely grateful if you could sponsor me.  The charity not only helps people in Africa, but also provides meaningful volunteering opportunities to people in the UK and others like ME!
