Fundraising for their Project Trust volunteer placement builds so many skills in our Volunteers. Rhys had great success recently at a carwash he held for the staff at his school @thewellingtonacademy raising money for his placement in Ghana next year. Well done Rhys!
βIn some key ways, I had advanced beyond my years. Iβve been in situations, testifying before Congress, sitting on government panels. Project Trust didnβt mean Iβd done it all before - just that there was no reason to think I couldnβt do it.β- @garyyounge
