Birmingham Cycle is raising money for Ardingly College Gambia Fundraising
“London To Birmingham Bike Ride”

on 6 February 2012

Donations cannot currently be made to this page
The Ardingly College Gambia project raises money to help fund school development projects in The Gambia. All money raised by Ardingly students goes towards projects designed in collaboration with the staff and Headteachers to ensure that they are appropriate to the needs of the school and the local community. This year we hope to fund new windows in clasroom blocks in Kartong School and to sponsor a teacher from Old Jeshwang School through their training. Thank you so much for your help.
