Story
If you run a car, would you please consider donating the price of one tank of fuel?
My friends Ian Morris and Heather Baker are volunteering in Sierra Leone, helping with projects on food sustainability and increasing opportunities for disabled children. They want to set up a training centre to give adults better employment prospects, and are also helping to build a school, a birthing centre and a computer hub, as well as volunteering at a hospice. It’s busy!
They are self-financing and determined to be as self sufficient as possible. They do not rely on income from charities. Like lots of us, they have car trouble at the moment and are doing 100 miles a day on a tiny motorbike. It’s not safe, and makes it difficult for Ian to move his building tools around. We’d like to help.
If several people gave them a gift to the value of one tank of petrol then they would be able to get their vehicle back on the road. Or you could make your gift larger or smaller, just as you like! Thank you so much.
