Cultural Leadership Challenge - St Maarten

A group of senior leaders from Menzies Aviation will be supporting the work of the K1 Britannia Foundation is St Maarten this November, working with young people on the island to improve their life chances.

As part of this exciting challenge, they are raising funds to support the work of the charity and this is the page where their fundraising efforts will be recorded.

The K1 Britannia Foundation exists to make a difference to the people – principally children - on the island, which is challenged regularly with disastrous weather.

Some of their projects have included working with young offenders to give them a second chance, working with local schools on counselling, working with under privileged children at Christmas time and providing apprenticeships to support the island’s core shipbuilding industry.

This work aims to combat poverty through empowerment, strengthen the local community and economy, and improve the life-chances of young people on the island.
