Hi and thanks for visiting this page! :)
In May 2014, with a group of 20 colleagues, Jon and Susan will be visiting the local community in Zambia where together with Build It International, will be building a new school for the community with a living facility to house its teachers.
This is a massive deal for the community, where currently families live on around 75p per day. It will equip them for a more hopeful and brighter future. The current school construction is small and consists of a structure with sticks and grass.
The new school will allow 258 children the chance to study in a safe and secure building and once the new solar powered installation is complete, the building will be used for extra evening classes, adult literacy, extra-curricular projects and church meetings. A real integral pillar in the community.
Jon and Susan have a tough challenge but are hugely privileged to fundraise and visit the new community school next year as the finishing touches take place and see first-hand what difference collective donations will make.
Please help in whatever way you can – small or large (!), Jon and Susan will be grateful for all donations because even the smallest pound will make a difference so please dig deep and send a couple this way.
Thanks,
Susan and Jon
