Teams 4U Kids Camp to Belarus · 8 June 2009

Teams4u seeks to work with children and young people who are in need and to develop the skills of those who work with them. Consequently the partner organisations vary and the needs that require support. At preasent T4U are working with those who support orphans, street children, child soldiers and young offenders. The current partner organisations are located within Eastern Europe and Africa.

Story

Following on from the fantatstic trip i went on last summer I am off to Belarus again in early August with Teams 4 U (http://www.teams4u.com/).  This year i am leading the Trip with my friend Jan.  We have 45 kids scheduled to come from an orhanage in Belarus and also from the organisation we have previously worked with in Belarus.   The camp offers an opportunity for the kids to be kids, play, relax and have some basic health checks.

The Children's Centre is just outside Minsk the capital of Belarus. It was built with the help of the Germans and Japanese following the Chernobyl disaster to provide somewhere for the children to go for a holiday to recoup and recover. The camp is still used for this today.   For a look at some pictures from last years trip have a click here http://picasaweb.google.com/hilgenberg.celia/BELARUSTEAMS4U2008

As for me and the team we will be running activities, games, crafts and all kinds of other fun things.  I am raising money to fund places for the kids coming on the summer camp.  The cost for each child to attend a camp is £100. This include accommodation, food, transport and health checks. I will be funding the cost of the trip, flights accommodation, materials for games and activities etc myself so anything you can give to fund the kids places will be fantastic!

So please sponsor me now!
