July 2008: Well digging.
Local men were hired to dig a well for the School, without visiting this part of the world you cannot imagine the importance of this, this was paid for out of your donations, thank you so very much.
We are now concentrating on a pump for the well this will cost a further £300, please, if you can, get involved, it makes such a difference to the children and maybe one meal out for you.
1st July 2008: Website live.
June 2008: Designating funds.
Last month we received a donation of 200 pounds from a lady supporter, having seen all the photos of the children she was keen that as many children as possible should have a school uniform. As a result 30 children received the only gift they had ever had. A school uniform is a most prized possession in this impoverished region. The giving of these uniforms was marked with a ceremony and a games day, the day was well attended by the local community and it raised everyone's spirits.
All the materials were bought locally and were made by local seamstresses. This is what makes a difference in a downtrodden region, your money, and I mean every penny, going into the local community, giving encouragement that some where on the planet there are people that care.
You just say what's on your heart and together we will make it happen. There is a box on the standing order form where you can state how you want your donation spent, please note you can use this form for one off donations also.
