THE CHALLENGER

NAME - Lucia Pestana

I first came across the charity through the Roast Foundation, where I work by being inspired with the work they do for charity and the keen mentoring from Andy who is a former colleague. This has led me to do more fundraising each year, in the last two years I have completed three challenges with Challenge12. This year I wanted to do something bigger I took the responsibility of captaining the team and I chose Y Care International as beneficiary because I believe in their work , they reach many people through their continuous support to others.

THE CHARITY

Y Care International

Y Care International is a charity that dedicates their work in helping young people in many countries. The charity is dedicated to support many other charities and it has inspired me to fundraise. Y Care believes young people are key to building a just world, free from poverty. Yet because of poverty, stigma and discrimination young people often don’t have the chance to take on this important role. They works in partnership with young people worldwide through the YMCA movement.

In 2012, Y Care International reached 20,000 disadvantaged young people in over 20 countries. Why see young people as leaders of tomorrow, when they should be participants in today’s developments
