Story

I am raising money for Sisters of Charity who undertake educational projects in Ethiopia. Money raised will primarliy go to providing school meals for the poorer children; often the only decent meal they will get all day. Any additional funds will contribute towards teacher training and buying books.

Whilst not in the news everyday, the situation in Ethiopia is not good; poor harvests have resulted in increased food prices and therefore reduced access for the poorest. Your donation will improve the health and quality of life for the poorest, and is really appreciated.

Thanks very much

Ben

 

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 - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
