Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page in memory of our Dad/Grandad, William Pereira.
We have chosen to raise money for The Hope Foundation in memory of William. HOPE promotes the protection of children living on the streets and in the slums of Kolkata, where William was born.
HOPE is dedicated to immediate and lasting change in their lives, by extending support to children and their communities via 60 on the ground projects, focusing on education and sport.
HOPE provides sustainable holistic solutions to protection and development, by providing healthcare, counselling and education, HOPE ensures children in its care enter adulthood equipped with the tools and support they need to live healthy and happy lives.
Their focus in the UK is to create greater awareness and to raise funds for their projects in Kolkata.
William believed very strongly in education, and we believe he would want to help young disadvantaged people with theirs. He was a cricketer, a hockey player and a golfer who followed many other sports, meaning he would be pleased to see the use of sports as a form of development for the young people supported by Hope
