Story

Volunteering in Africa has always been on my "Bucket List" & thankfully after meeting Cian O'Brien & learning about the Sparkle Malawi Foundation I have been afforded the opportunity to do just that. Having signed up as a volunteer this Summer & asking my sister to join me, I thought of how we might be able to raise much needed funds to bring with us for the orphanage. The Great Wall of China was also on my "Bucket List" & because I celebrate my 30th birthday this year & it happens to coincide with the Great Wall of China Marathon, I thought why not celebrate my 30th by participating in the prestigious event & raise funds for the charity at the same time. As simple as that, two life long dreams achieved at the same time!! Any donation will be greatly appreciated, thanks a million!!
