We are an awareness, fundraising and international volunteering society.
We currently have a volunteering project in Uganda where we work with Little Big Africa (LBA www.littlebigafrica.org) a Ugandan health and sanitation NGO. Volunteers fundraise for the project and next summer (2011) go to eastern Uganda to build water tanks, protect water sources and build fuel efficient stoves. We have sucessfully sent students to Uganda for two years now, with 12 students going out this summer.
Past fundraising events have included a Jazz Night, Bucket Shakes, Cake Sales, Sponsored events and the Three Peaks Challenge!
We are part of the newly formed InterVol charity (see the Charity Commission pages here ) so we benefit from their support, knowledge and help with fundraising.
