I'm raising £500 for a children/youth project.

On our recent trip to India, we visited the Little Acorns Day care centre in Goa. They cater to the children of migrant construction workers. Tourism is the main source of income in this area and during the peak tourist season people from the neighbouring states migrate to Goa in search of livelihood. The children accompanying them are often sent to work in the market or beg in the streets. Little Acorns instead provide these children with a safe place to learn, a hot meal and help to find them a place in local schools.

I will be hosting a fundraising day at my school Woodlands Meed, a special education provider. The day aims to educate our students about the culture and practices of Indian traditions whilst providing the students with a chance to contribute to a social action project and raise money for this important cause. Our "India day" will consist of an Indian buffet, cooked for the students by the students. Talks from parents about their culture and traditions; and an enrichment afternoon where students get to experience Indian pass times and practices such as cricket, Bollywood dance, Bollywood movies, block printing, and weaving.
