Sponsorship through Action Aid
We sponsor two children through Action Aid. The children receive reports on their progress and there is great excitement when we get a letter. Eric and Bo-Ib live in Ghana. The children have raised substantial amounts of money to support the annual subscription to Action Aid as they know that their hard work helps someone who really appreciates what they do. They know they make a difference. One innovative way the children have raise money is to try to make as much money from £10. They learnt how to set up a mini business, market goods and sell them. They raised over £350!
In 2006 the children raised the following for charity:
- Water Aid - £201.17
- Sports Aid - £431.38
- Cancer Relief – Peruvian challenge - £23.93
- Action Aid - £397.00
- Breast Cancer - £83.78
- Jeans for Genes - £84.00
- Shelter - £37.00
- St. Leonard’s Church - £36.05
