*****************NO AMOUNT TOO SMALL*************************

In July 2010 Maggie Day will volunteer in Kakoma school, Embamgweni Village in Mzuzu region of Malawi for three weeks.

The Cooker in the Nursery School

The project goal is to implement a tailored sports programme, working with the children, training the teachers and gifting equipment and lesson manuals.  We would also like to repair and re build the general facilities in particular  the Nursery school and provide superior cooking facilities - as you will see they could not be more basic.

Our fundraising for this project is reaching out to sports bodies and organisations, UK companies and indiviuals. It is a cap in hand approach.  All donations however small are welcome. PLEASE GIVE
