Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Union Bog · 13 November 2009

Cord is an international charity that works with people in highly sensitive and oppressive contexts to transform dysfunctional relationships into those that create peaceful & inclusive societies. Our vision, mission and values are inspired by the Christian faith. Our Vision is of a world where all people live in the fullness of peace; having the freedom to flourish and live free from fear. Our Mission is to transform dysfunctional relationships between individuals and communities and those holding power into positive and thriving relationships built on mutual dependency and trust. Cord works in partnership with local community based organisations to develop their skills, knowledge and expertise with a view to enabling them to more effectively advocate on behalf of communities with government, private companies, and others with power and leverage to impact the quality of life of disadvantaged communities.

Story

Thanks for visiting our JustGiving page. We are Open Heaven Society; part of Loughborough Students' Union and Open Heaven Church. We're a group of students who are up for seeing revival through the love of Jesus spreading over campus! A big part of what we do is campaigning against injustice, and Cord is a charity that we really support.

 

Our aim is to raise enough money to twin all the toilets in our union with new ones in Burundi, as part of Cord's 'Toilet Twinning' campaign. To do this we are building and living in a slum outside of our students' union building! This means 45hours of living outdoors on basic food rations, spending the weekend the way millions spend a lifetime.

 

So please donate what you can to support us and improve the lives of people in Burundi. 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.

Thank you!
