Story

not long now 👍😊

We are three friends Andy Bartlett, Nigel Salt and Steve Collins who work for the same company and when we saw this opportunity to raise money for SOS Africa who supports the education and care of underprivileged African township children by abseiling from the famous Glastonbury Festival Pyramid stage on September 21st , we just couldn't resist. It's going to be so much fun. Please donate what you can for this worthy cause. You can sponsor us in 3 ways, 1. on this page. 2. Text OPMH62 then your donation £1, £2, £3, £4, £5 , £10 etc, to 70070. 3. By sponsor form, which are with Andy, Nigel and Steve. Thank you to those of you who have already sponsored us. About SOS Africa
1. What does the SOS Africa Charity do?

SOS Africa is a non-profit, predominantly volunteer-run, UK registered charity (no. 1105747) which funds the education and care of underprivileged African township children. We believe that the only way to break the cycle of poverty which continues to haunt African societies is through the provision of education and care to future generations.


2. What specific support does SOS Africa provide?

We provide the children we support with a well-rounded reception, preparatory, primary and high school level education. The SOS Africa Aftercare Centre also provides extensive aftercare support (including lunch, assistance with homework, extra lessons and swimming lessons in the summer). In addition we provide each child with school uniform, stationery and transportation. However, we are not a hand-out charity – we only provide children with tools which will assist their educational development.

3. When was SOS Africa founded?

SOS Africa was founded in January 2003 by gap student Matt Crowcombe and school teacher Henry Matthews, when SOS Africa's first child began his education at Mafikeng Primary School. For more information visit ‘the SOS Africa Story.’
