Story
We are taking part in the appeal - Walk for Water for CAFOD. On 17th March we ask children to come to school wearing anything blue, green or white to represent water and at some point in the day they will walk in their bubbles around a 1km circuit in the playground participating in fun tasks at various intervals. We will add up all the 1km walks at the end. The aim is to smash 1000km. Surely we can do this if everyone participates. During the day children will learn more about the importance of water for life. Should be a fun learning and fundraising experience. Please donate!!
Please sponsor us if you can and donate directly to our just giving page https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/reading-english-martyrs
Donations can be given throughout Lent!
Abdella is 23 and he has big dreams. He dreams of starting a small business, starting a family, of having his own home.He dreams of not having to walk for ten hours a day to get water. Abdella lives in Afar, Ethiopia one of the hottest places on earth. He spends most of a day getting water for his family to drink. On the days when he's too tired to walk, his brother goes. He knows that if there was water near his home, his family wouldn't have to worry about getting enough to stay alive. And he could start on the dreams he has for the rest of his life.Your gift could buy:- water for a family - £33 - a bike for a water engineer to travel to a remote community's water pump - £66
During Lent we aim to raise at least £200 for this great appeal. Please help us achieve our target. Thank you so much for all your support.
