Story

Thank you for visiting my page.  Those of you who have sponsored me in the past have made a vast difference in the lives of so many children who have so little.  Please read about that difference below. Thank you.

Lionsraw's plan, this year, is to build a further 6 classrooms.  I’m aiming to raise £2,500 for one of them. This will ensure a further 300 children are educated and fed daily. All donations go directly to the costs of the building materials.  The building is all done by self funded volunteers from all over the world. 


In 2010, when I first started fundraising for Lionsraw, https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=_t97Yj3Tr5Y  we built an orphanage and two classrooms to start a school in South Africa for 80 children, in the most aids infected area in the world. https://vimeo.com/12940863

Since then we have built a further 3 classrooms and due to the demand we have obtained two portacabins and we use a house for one of the grades. There are currently 402 children.

In 2012, I raised funds towards a feeding programme we started to feed each child FutureLife porridge daily at school.

The programme is fully supported at £2.50 p/m to feed a child

Each child brushes their teeth every day at school too.

The orphanage that Lionsraw built is also funded by Lionsraw to provide schooling, medical, food etc and they have been linked with numerous organisations who now also assist.
