Louis Shekleton will travel to Eswatini this September to do voluntary work for a year.
A 19-year-old from Kilmarnock will move to South Africa for a year to do voluntary work in the community.
Louis said: "My dad went with a group from the Bridge Church in Kilwinning that we go to. He went for a few weeks, and then, just from hearing how good his trip was, I went the following year with him and my mum. I was 10 years old and ever since I've been going every year up to now. "Most of the children that come to the care points are orphans. A lot of the parents have died from AIDS and HIV. It's the AIDS and HIV capital of the world. These children are the ones who are coming to the care point to get a nutritious meal.
The container was donated by Michael’s employer Morsons, an agency for Spirit Aero Systems, who bought the container for £1350 and donated it. The family always wanted to give back and help the community, however, Louis's mum is unable to travel to Eswatini as often now as the family adopted two boys with special needs that need to be cared for so the last few times Louis went back to South Africa just with his dad.
