We are a tiny charity but make a massive difference.... 4,000 children die every day in Africa due to poor sanitation and a lack of clean water. We dig wells, build toilets and give children living in poverty a chance to go to school. ...98% of your donate will goes directly to projects in Africa

Story

Village by Village works in partnership with those living in poverty in Ghana by building wells, improving sanitation and providing scholarship for children.

In October 2009, I took part in an amazing and very personal challenge to Cycle Tanzania 

I have now agreed to go to a village in Ghana on the edge of a rainforest along with another East Lothian Council employee and another East Lothian resident. We leave at the end of January to provide direct support to people within the village.

I will undertake tasks such as assisting the teacher in the school with arts and crafts and weighing baby's in the outreach clinics.

This year I am only aiming to raise £500 for the charity Village by Village.  This will pay for educational scholarships for 5 children.  Whatever you can donate, it will be much appreciated and will be going to a very worthwhile cause.

Thank you so much
