Sophie Kerr, 23 years of age and a Coldstream citizen all her life, and of 27 Hillview, has written to local organisations to support her 10k run and concert in the Parish Church. She is raising funds to finance her volunteer work in Livingstone, Zambia, where she will take part in a Teaching and Community Volunteer Project. She will be working for an organisation called 'African Impact', partnered with the Happy Africa Foundation and she provides details of these organisations which are carrying out vital work in the communities. Sophie has to raise a project fee of £2,264.55 and is asking locals if they can make donations, large or small. Sophie can be contacted at the above address or on sophk1234@hotmail.com. Let's support this young lady in her initiative.
