Running for a brighter future
Alexander Bright
My Story
My name is Alex and I am raising money for SKD Guatemala, this summer I had the privilege and life changing experience of volunteering with the team at SKD. Whilst I was there I was able to witness the amazing work that all the team from SKD do for the people in so much need of so much support. One of the main aims of this non- profit charity is to help kids on the street or being at risk of being on the street due to the home life being destroyed by various forms of abuse, alcohol or drugs. Their vision is to try and make the children have a brighter future and a better life as one their main aims is to break the cycle that exists in their society. For many of the kids the team at SKD offer as a life line changing the children’s life.
Providing children with an Education is at the heart of their programme as many of the kids wouldn't have the option to access education otherwise. Providing adults access to rehabilitation is at the core of the goals and support them on their path to employment. However these life changing opportunities that the team offers to children and adults in Guatemala wouldn't be possible if it wasn't for kind and generous donations that they receive. For me I felt that it was a different world and one which I felt it was unfair to see so many children being born into poverty and I felt truly sad and my goal from being there is try in whatever way I can to help the children see a different life.
I would be grateful for any donation that you can kindly give as each donation that you can give can help bring joy into a child’s life and you can play a part in giving adults and children a brighter future.
