Lydia Chaplain is raising money for Harambee For Kenya
“Lydia Chaplain's fundraising”

on 4 January 2010

Donations cannot currently be made to this page
This is a charity that assists street children in Kenya by giving them either a safe house in which to live or in Foster Care (whichever is appropriate). It also ensures they are fed, cared for mediacally and receive an education to help them become valued members of society. The charity works closely with local people who are respected and have a heart for these deprived children

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you know I am going to Kenya in April 2010 with Harambee for Kenya a charity that aims to provide a place of safety for homeless young people. A group of 20 of us (including a local scouts group) are hoping to go out this Easter to work with the children on various projects including building a chicken coup as a means of food and income for the house.

We would also really like to organise a day trip for the young people to Lake Victoria whilst we are there, a place none of them have ever visited before. Any money donated will go towards the cost of making this happen, including coach hire (£250), refreshments and appropriate shoes for the trip, as well as supporting these young people in the house (to give you a basic idea, £20 will cover the cost of food, clothes and medical help for one child for a month).  

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
