Story

 When the beloved Welshie, Presley the Dog, crossed the rainbow bridge at the beginning of the year, people opened their hearts and tributes poured in. 

 When the memorial fund closed at the end of the Spring, there was enough to bring light to a small village in Africa. Enough Wakawakas have been sent to safely light the lives of up to 1000 people!

 With the generosity last year, our partner, The Gunjur Project Association, has started building a training room to educate the local people how to look after their animals as well as provide a training space to give the local people more opportunity to help themselves. 

 This room is to be named... 

 "The Presley Education Place" 

 So again this Winter, if you would like to be a part of Presley's legacy and in doing so help those less fortunate than ourselves to enjoy the love of those that, in turn, love us so unconditionally, please share the joy of giving this Christmas.  Include a Pawsome Family Member photo that could inspire love and smiles to be displayed on our website (www.Dance2Learn.org)and in the training room in The Gambia to bring joy to those who learn there.

About the charity

RCN HMRC Registered
www.Dance2Learn.org was set up in 2007 by Mei Catherall as a charitable company under the umbrella of www.iSource.org.uk to raise money to improve the school lives of the pupils at Jamisa Basic School in Brikama, Gambia whilst promoting dance and a feeling of community spirit here in the united Kingdom. This project has seen water & electricity brought in to the school and initiated a twinning with a school in the UK. We continued to support the growth of the library and were kept informed by the Deputy headmaster, Mr Badjie, on developments. With your help, the school has made tremendous leaps in the education league table in The Gambia. Since this initial project, D2L have been involved in helping the WHO to eradicate malaria through fund-raising to provide mosquito nets (and training as to their proper use) to Africa where a child dies every 35.8 seconds from this preventable disease. Our latest project is to provide WakaWaka Solar Lighting to students and needy, working with "The Gunjur Project" so that they are able to carry on the good work.
