If you've been reading my travel blog you'll know I spent a month this past summer in Lobitos, Peru Volunteering with an NGO called WAVES for development. http://www.wavesfordevelopment.org/ My experience was unreal, and to continue my involvement with WAVES I've started a new fundraiser. My goal is to raise $3000 by December. Why? So that WAVES can employ a local Peruvian to teach Environment Education Classes in the local school to kindergarden, primary and secondary students for one year.

Over the next semester there will be fundraisers happening at UBC Okanagan and to get things started my family and I will be hosting a garage sale this Saturday, all proceeds going to WAVES Environment Class Teacher Fundraiser!
