On my return from I was put in contact with a small charity called the Calcutta Rescue Fund. Started in 1979 this small charity which has already achieved so much, is working hard to improve to lives of some of the poorest families in .

Like many other charities Calcutta Rescue is run solely on the donations they receive and the time volunteers put in to help this organisation achieve its goals.

On the 4^th September we will be holding a fundraiser in London to help raise money for the many thousands who every day sleep rough, without shelter and without a home.

To make this a success I am asking everyone to try and help by making a small donation of whatever you can to help us make this night a success. No contribution is too little nor one too great but with your help we may be able to bring a little change to a big problem

Thank you
