Story
Hi Everyone!
I'm going to Calcutta this summer with the charity Tearfund. Whilst there I shall be working for a charity called Emmanuel Ministries Calcutta who work with the poorest people in Calcutta, such as street children, slum dwellers and rickshaw pullers.
I will be co-leading a team of 9 girls, helping at Pavement Club which provides education for children from underprivileged backgrounds or from the street. I will also be helping at Calcutta Emmanuel School, which provides the same level education as an Indian private school but completely free. This allows slum children to gain the same level education as those in the best schools. The team will also be involved in several Community Development Projects, such as health and hygiene instruction, youth clubs and adult literacy classes, and the Calcutta Samaritans, which has an extensive programme in drug abuse prevention and promoting the awareness of HIV/AIDS.
Please donate as much or as little as you want. Every penny counts!
Tearfund Ref. No: 2992479
Funding Code: 1211
Trip Name: India - Emmanuel Ministries Calcutta
Unfortunately, this money cannot be gift-aided.
