Raising money for

Moving Mountains

Charity Registration No. XR62512

Moving Mountains is a principled, well run charity which has its overheads covered by Adventure Alternative. It has fully operational, dedicated NGO's in Nepal and Kenya run by teams of local Trustees who have now been with us for over ten years. In Kenya we build, renovate and run orphanages, rescue centres, schools and clinics. We support street kids and their families with a complete, long term strategy of relevant developmental aid which links in with other local self-help organisations and is really successful! In Nepal we have built a hydro-electric power station high in the Himalayas, two monasteries and a school, and we support children with their education. We have also enabled adults to become self-sufficient through income-generating businesses and created a model green village. We make a point of inviting people to come out and help our work, and we now have nearly fifteen years of solid experience behind us. We are registered in Northern Ireland and accepted as a charity by the Inland Revenue under reference XR62512. www.movingmountains.org.uk

My story

32 students from King Edward's School in Bath travelled to Western Kenya during July 09 to take part in a cultural exhange and help build a science lab and library at Wagwer Secondary School in Western Kenya. Students and staff at King Edward's raised significantly more than the initial target of £25,000 and so the project was extended. Their new target is £36,508 which will pay for 2 science labs and a school library for Wagwer Secondary School, a bore hole and a computer room for Wagwer Primary School and a bore hole for Kayeiye Primary School.

60% of all fundraised money will be used on these projects, the remainder will be used by Moving Mountains for its ongoing projects (orphanages, clinics, schools, street-kid programs etc). None of this money was used to subsidise the teachers or students that visited Kenya. If you would like to make a donation, please do so by clicking on the link below!
