Jeevika Trust - Walk for Water 2009 · 13 September 2009 ·

JEEVIKA TRUST tackles the roots of Indian poverty - working in rural areas with low-caste and tribal people, especially women - to help them build their individual and community livelihoods. Our latest partner is AKSHAYA KSHETRAM, a charity which cares for mentally challenged people and orphans.

Story



Hello!

Thank you for getting this far and looking at my and my team's Just Giving page for the Walk for Water 2009. 

I will be walking 7 miles in a Sari around Hampton Court and the River Thames - it could be more arduous I agree but it is worth supporting me for the following reasons:

a) my Dad will be happy!

b) Jeevika's projects are brilliant and beautiful and could be used as case studies and inspiration for similar projects in other parts of the world - eg breeding fish in ponds and reservoirs - villagers can not only eat the fish but sell them too (give a man a rod..), eg showing women how to keep bees and produce prized honey, giving people the simple 'appropriate technology' to make their own bricks to build homes using local clay/ mud, teaching people how to rear and breed goats - again not just to get milk from but also to eat and sell.  Life-changing projects executed with love and humanity in partnership with effective local people.  No waste.

Could you support me with £25?  £15?  £5?


As you know, this website is safe and secure and a tax efficient way to give. 

Thank you.  I will see and acknowledge whatever you do donate.

Love Leila
