My Travel Story

Hello good people
In Zimbabwe,
grannies over 70 are facing tough times. With 10hrs/day loadshedding, they're struggling to keep their homes lit and safe. Water's also a huge challenge - in some communities, they get water from taps just once a week. We're going to Zimbabwe to bring groceries and solar lights to these amazing grannies, and most importantly, listen to their stories and challenges with water access.

*Goal:* We're raising funds to:
- Cover our travel and project costs
- Provide food parcels for 30 grannies 70+ in need
- Distribute solar lights for lighting and safety
- Support community-led water access initiatives

*Impact:* Your contribution will help bring light, food, and hope to Zimbabwe's elderly heroes. We'll share stories and updates from our trip.

*How you can help:*
- Contribute to our travel fund
- Share our campaign with friends & family
- Offer skills or resources to support the project
