Kampala's Kids
Fundraising for Alive and Kicking
Story
My story,
is really not about me, it is about the work of two fantastic charity
organisations and their work in Africa. It is about the soft-power of sport and working in partnership
to keep Alive local employment and securing children's Right to Play.
Kampala's Kids live in difficult situations and are often at the bottom of the priority list. There is a lack of resources to support child development and the development of healthy and protective communities in which they will grow up. My plan is simple I want to help provide that resource, to raise £300 to get 30 balls (footballs & netballs) made in Kenya by Alive & Kicking delivered into Uganda to support the field-work of Right to Play on projects across Kampala supporting 25,438 (11,475 female) children in regular activities. With a donation of £10 to Alive and Kicking you can buy a ball and in doing so...
"...provide balls for children who don’t have balls to play with, jobs for previously unemployed 130 adults, and health awareness for young people through sport." (Alive and Kicking) http://www.aliveandkicking.org.uk "...improve the lives of children in the most disadvantaged areas of the world by using the power of sport and play for development, health and peace." (Right to Play) http://www.righttoplay.org.uk With your support I know I can make my target and should that target be met every additional donation will provide one more ball for Kampala's Kids. So please dig deep and donate now, becauce "When children Play the world wins."
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – 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.
