The charity all our donations are going to is Gemin-i. We are trying to reach our goal of £1,000 so if you would like to help out a good cause then you can donate online via JustGiving or you can contact us directly, here. The money we raise helps to fund a Youth Action Xchange project, which aims to raise awarenes and generate understanding of the HIV and AIDS epidemic among young people all around the world.
With £1,000 it is possible to run this programme in four schools - each costing £250. For this, a school will be privded with the ability to teach their pupils about HIV & AIDs - raising awareness and knowledge on preventative methods. Each school will receive 3 years of support. In addition, they will be able to use computers in order to connect with other schools in the scheme, all around the world. Here they can share their thoughts on the issue.
More information on the project is available here and here
We also made a blog about our team and fundraising efforts, which is available at http://perpetualms.blogspot.com/
Please help us spread the word and raise money for this inspiring project.
On the 27th of May, in accordance with the 'Sucata Split' event we will be driving from Belgium to Croatia in our car, displaying all logos and text written by our donators. Note that the £250 for the car plus other expenses (fuel, food, accommodation etc) is paid for out of our own pocket. Every penny you donate will go straight to the Gemin-i.org charity. If you have a company, a band or anything else you'd like advertised on the car in these countries a donation will get you space on the car. The car itself is a VW Driver (Golf) in grey.
