Update: Brian and Nicola are now back from Argentina having completed the Global Village Challenge for Habitat for Humanity. You can catch up on how we got on at the Inksters Give Blog. Our fund raising efforts will however continue (at least for a few months more). Please keep giving.
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Brian and Nicola are joining a two-week challenge (14th to 28th November 2009) to help an Argentine family out of the shocking poverty in which they live. Working together with the local community, we will assist in building a home using local materials and building techniques. We will work directly with the beneficiary homepartner family as we support them in their effort to build a better future.For the homepartner families, the fact that volunteers come from so far away provides a tremendous motivation. The cultural exchange is extremely important for the programme, families and Habitat staff. Part of the experience is to give both a great building experience but also an understanding of the impact of poverty housing.
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. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - We raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
The cost of the trip to Argentina has already been met through kind sponsorship by Inksters Solicitors. See the Inksters Give website for more details. Therefore, every penny raised by Brian and Nicola will go straight to Habitat for Humanity to directly assist the build project.
So please dig deep and donate now.
