Story

<p>Hello Everyone,</p> <p>We are raising money for a GVI Pheonix Program in Honduras. It is a fantastic cause and nearly all of the funds you donate will end up in the field helping local Honduran children:-</p> <p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 14px;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;">In 2005, GVI Phoenix started working in a small school in San Rafael, Honduras, in the mountains surrounding Cop&aacute;n. Recently, we have expanded into Barbasco aswell, providing extra teachers, food and fruit for the children, who share classrooms and teachers across all grades. In 2008, we started our own secondary school in San Rafael, paying for teachers to give secondary education, which was impossible before. Now we have 100 children enrolled, from five different communities.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 14px;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal; font-size: 15px;"> </span></span></span></p> <p>What your donations can provide:</p> <p><strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;">GBP10 buys the necessary educational utensils for one child per year</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;">GBP25 buys food and fruit for 10 children for one month</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;">GBP350 pays for the salary of one local secondary teacher per month</span></strong></p> <p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;">Without this project, the children would simply not receive secondary education. &nbsp;By donating just a small amount, the project will receive funding to allow the school to have teachers who can provide official certificates for the children, which goes a long way to achieving our sustainable goals.&nbsp;<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Calibri;">We can also ensure the children receive a healthy meal each day</span></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">. The children are the future and secondary education gives them a shot at this future.</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
