Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

During a visit to Zimbabwe, to meet Dorothy the child we sponsor through international charity Plan UK, we visited her primary school- a school in urgent need of rehabilitation. Children were being taught sitting under trees as there are only enough classrooms for half the number of children, and the teachers are desperately short of accommodation. A storm damaged a classroom block and toilet facilities and the teachers have to walk 6km to get water and we think that the 435 children and 15 teachers could do with a real hand up. 

With your support we can rehabilitate the school, build toilets, dig a well and vastly improve access to eduction for some of the children in Chiredzi. Please help us to help them, as we get so much for Christmas that we don't really need and all they really need is a classroom.
