My Travel Story

by: Rachael McCarney Start Date: Jul 5, 2018 - End Date: Jan 4, 2019
In February 2019 I will be travelling to Sri Lanka to volunteer with SLV Global. Other countries, such as Sri Lanka, do not have the same luxuries as we do when it comes to mental health, due to scarce resources and a lack of trained professionals. I will be travelling there to work with individuals of all ages and to help promote positive mental wellbeing in the community, as well as to gain crucial psychological work experience. 

This is a very important cause as not only will I be helping improve individuals' mental wellbeing, I will also be assisting with projects that teach English as well as community outreach programmes. 

Any donations to fund my trip would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
