Funds needed:

We are trying to raise funds to build schools in Guinea Bissau. One school, Reinaldo Natcha’s Martin Luther King School, is already functioning and desperately needs an extension to accommodate more students. This extension has already been started, but they need more bricks to complete all the classrooms.

The other school is a long-planned building by the family of Alfecene, one of my Level 2 ESOL students. He and his father and brother are going back to Bissau from London to start building it in September.

Proceeds of this fundraiser will be divided between the 2 schools. We also need funds to sponsor girls in Guinea Bissau for university education. This costs between £20 and £40 per month (9 months of the year). If you are able to set up a regular payment to AGB (via Paypal on our website), this will make a great difference to our selected girls, and their country.
