My Personal Message
Hey Guys,
As some of you may already know both myself (Jonny) and my Brother (Graham) are heading out to Africa to a place called Lusaka in Africa as part of a team of 8 for two weeks with the non-profit charity group Habitat for Humanity in July 2010. We greatly appreciate ANY donations, and can ensure you that all your donations are going to a needy cause. The program we are going out to Zambia to help is called the orphans and vulnerable childrens' program.
The Habitat for Humanity OVC program works with the local community in Zambia to house Families effected by the HIV/AID's virus and also helps build Communities that the families live in. The program operates a vetting system to ensure that the most vulnerable get what they need most...a place to call home.
Last year i took part in a trip to Mozambique where a woman told us that "before we built a house for her, while everyone used to pray for rain she would pray it never rained because there was not a proper roof on the shelter she was staying in so every time it rained it meant she could not make a fire to cook food for her children."
Without your donations we could not have helped her and we hope to do the same for other families this year.
***For Business' donations of €150 or more are tax deductible***
