THANK YOU!

I would just like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who has been kind enough to sponsor me.  I really really appreciated it!!


If you would like to sponsor me then please visit my Virgin Money Giving Page at www.virginmoneygiving.com/sallystone


or see below on other ways to sponsor. 


No matter how big or small, all will be greatly received.


Thank you :) xx

Off to the library!

So yesterday I ventured to the local library (which doesn't happen often) to find address so I can get my letter out to charitable trusts to hopefully receive some more sponsorship. 
I was very lucky in that my step mum, Anthea, came along to help me, which I was very grateful for!  All in all we were there for about three hours!  Another trip will have to be made soon because we only got to 'M' in the charitable trusts directory.


So things seem to be coming together now as I have the letters written and nearly ready to post... Lets hope I get some positive feed back :)

How to donate

Hey everyone, 
If you want to donate any money towards my year aboard then you can do it in a few ways.
You can sponsor me through my Virgin Money Giving Page, which is quick and really easy! It is also very safe!  The web address is:
virginmoneygiving.com/sallystone


Or you can send me a cheque personally to my address which is:
Sally Stone
16 Norman Road, 
Sutton,
Surrey, 
SM1 2TA
If you do it this way, please make the cheque out to 'Project Trust'


Or if you wish to send your cheque straight to Project Trust themselves then the address is:

The Hebridean Centre,

Isle of Coll,

Argyll,

PA78 6TE

UK

HOWEVER if you do it this way, PLEASE make sure you put my name (Sally Stone) on the back of the cheque so they can identify who the money is for! 

However big or small your donation is, it will be greatly appreciated by myself and more importantly the people who the money will be helping in Malaysia.

Thank you very much,

Sally x

Happy New Year!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!
Hi guys, hope you all had a great christmas and a happy new year.
I've got loads planned for fundraising this new year and I'm hoping all of you will help and get involved.
Family and friends have been really generous already and I've managed to get £1,500 which is 30% of my total target of £5000.

I have given out money tins to family and friends to collect any loose change they have lying around which I'm hoping will be a great help towards my fund.
I am also planning to do a skydive in April!! I must be mad but will be great.  It will also give me a chance to raise awareness of my trip and the reason I am going away to help developing communities.

Other plans I have are doing cake sales at my school, bag packing at a supermarket, sending letters to charitable trusts, and other little events!
I'll also be setting up a Virgin Money Giving Page so you can donate money if you wish!

Thanks for taking time to read this and hope you all have a great new year!!

Just some of the things that Project Trust does

Welcome to my new blog!

I thought I would create a blog that people can follow to see how my fundraising is going, what I have planned next and how you can get involved.  Also I will hopefully be able to update it throughout my year overseas, to keep you all updated and share with you all my experiences!


When I found out I got selected for Project Trust I was so excited and happy.  It hasn't really hit me that I will be going to Malaysia for a year to work in third world development.  It's scary and exciting all at the same time!
I now have the big task of raising £5,100 to get myself to my project and living out there.


I will be updating this blog often, so keep checking up on it!
