Introducing the first 2 of our young makers that we have in the shop currently, I’ll let them introduce them selves in their own words and the wonderful reasons they are raising money, please help us support them if you can:
My name is Theo, I’m a 16 year old local school pupil who’s been selling home made dog biscuits at The Green Shop. I first had the idea when I signed up to a Camps International volunteering expedition to Kenya and I needed to fundraise. The Green Shop kindly let me sell the biscuits at their shop and they have sold really well, contributing to my overall fundraising target.
My volunteering experience in Kenya was so eye opening and rewarding, I eagerly signed up a further similar expedition where I’ll be travelling to Costa Rica in 2027. Again, The Green Shop has kindly allowed me to make and sell the dog biscuits and I’ll continue to do this until I depart next year.
This opportunity has been great as it’s given me some personal responsibility and I’m really grateful to The Green Shop and everyone who has supported me with buying my dog biscuits. Thank you so much!
Hi! I’m Gabriella, I’m 14 and I am fundraising to go on an expedition to Kenya with Camps International in 2027 with my school.
Whilst there I will get to help the local community by building classrooms, painting, making sure the communities get clean drinking water, treep planting, wildlife conservation (for example, building elephant deterrent fences) and so much more!
To help fundraise the money I am going to row the coastline of Kenya and I have also designed cards and other stationary to sell!
Thank you!
