Story

I have supported the Tag Rugby Trust for over ten years.  In that time I have been lucky enough to witness first hand how the universal power of sport, the values of rugby and friendship, can change people's lives for the better — building futures through rugby.

Due to the pandemic, all our tours to Zambia had to be cancelled. However, the need to support the communities we engage with only increased. Those with the least hit the hardest.

Whereas we normally send clothing, sports kit and school supplies with our school and club tours, we had to send it by container instead. This enabled us to send lots of essential donations, BUT, it comes with a shipping cost… and this is where you help is so important.

WE NEED YOUR DONATION to help cover the cost of shipping.

We have sent two 40ft containers already — full of computers; sewing machines; sports kit and equipment, clothing; shoes; school books and school desks. The donation you make now will help fund the costs incurred and enable more of these vital donations to get to where they need to be.

A BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has donated stuff — without your commitment and generosity, we wouldn't have anything to ship. I can assure you that your donations make an enduring difference to schools and families we work with in Zambia.

SCHOOLS HELPING SCHOOLS

I must say a special thank you to some schools who have given huge quantities of uniform, sports kit, bags, etc. These include:

  • Aldro School
  • Beatrix Potter Primary School
  • Emanuel School
  • Sydenham High School.

Thanks for taking the time to checkout this page. Without your support, none of the amazing donations we received will get to, and benefit, the people who need them the most.

THANK YOU
