An expense paid trip to Kenya is up for grabs for one lucky host who takes home the Eat So They Can grand prize! The grand prize winner will have the opportunity to visit Kenya and have a hand in distributing monies raised from the Eat So They Can campaign and meet the children who will be benefiting from the funds - what an experience! Julie and Laura, last year's grand prize winners, had the following to say after their life changing trip to Kenya:
"Our lives will be changed forever. It has been such an eye opening opportunity and invaluable experience to be able to view the world from another perspective. One thing we have learned from this trip above all, is the value of Eat So They Can (ESTC) donations. When we donated to ESTC and held a dinner party for our friends we were unaware of how much the food it was purchasing was needed, or who would be receiving it. We witnessed thousands of children benefiting...
We encourage everyone to continue to donate to ESTC. It is so easy to host a dinner party and even the smallest donation will help. Putting an end to poverty is something we felt passionate about before leaving for Kenya, but now our beliefs have been confirmed. It's very important that we work harder to raise money to lessen the economic equalities in our world. We hope that our words convey the strong meaning we are trying to express.
We are looking forward to becoming more involved with ESTC and truly hope that you will decide to do the same. We have been so lucky to receive this insight. It has been a real gift that we will use to create more awareness back home.
Thank you to the whole ESTC Team for a once in a life time experience!"
