Roger Morton, from Poundon, near Bicester, is raising £2,000 so he can go to Uganda to work on a water and sanitation scheme.
The 19-year-old, who is studying at Exeter University, has organised a number of events, including a quiz at the Sow and Pigs pub, in his village.
The quiz, hosted by landlady Ali Gurney, raised more than £300, and a further £100 was donated by the pub’s owner, Brakspear’s of Henley.
Mr Morton needs another £600 to take part in the project, which is a joint scheme between Engineers Without Borders Exeter and New Build Uganda.
It will help improve sanitation and water supplies in the rural Mubende district.
