"Overcoming poverty is not a gesture of charity. It is an act of justice. It is the protection of a fundamental human right, the right to dignity and a decent life. While poverty persists, there is no true freedom.”

Nelson Mandela

 

The project started in a Yorkshire school, in 2005. As the pupils explored other cultures, beliefs and environments, so they became more aware of differences; of poverty; of struggles and of children with no hope.

The wish was to help children in Africa and so, with some 9 year old British school children raising the first £450, the ‘School for Africa’ Fund was born.

It now supports children in Zambia who have nothing: no schooling, little food and, more often than not, no home or family
