Story

 

I will be travelling to work in the Forever Angels baby home in November for 1 week.  I will be taking my own 10 year old daughter, two of my mentees and a City professional with me in order to provide as much help as we can.   Our role at the home will be to teach pre school, look after the children and generally do whatever is required.  Please watch the youtube video as this will give you a much better insight in to the home than any words could provide.

My/my daughters target of £2000 will only provide the home with support for just 4 months, so give generously and make a difference - I appreciate any support you can provide.

 

The Forever Angels Baby Home is located in Tanzania and managed by a family friend, Amy Hathaway.  Forever Angels Baby Home is dedicated to looking after and giving love to young orphaned and abandoned infants who have no one else to care for them.

There are thousands of orphaned and abandoned children in Africa, often due to AIDS. In Tanzania, about 10% of the population carry the HIV virus. As a result of this, many babies and young children lose their mothers whilst still nursing. Other parents are simply too sick or too poor to care for their children. Traditionally, their extended family would help support these vulnerable children, but with the AIDS epidemic effectively stripping away this support network, more and more of these babies are remaining in families that are simply unable to care for them and so they often die from starvation or disease. Others are abandoned or left in Government hospitals to die alone. 

Thanks for your donation, I appreciate whatever you have to give.
