Huge congratulations to my good friend Laura who successfully completed the “Run to the Beat” half marathon in London on Sunday, and has managed to raise a fantastic amount for Friends of Alalay in the process! It’s not too late to still sponsor her brilliant effort here…
We have not yet finalised exactly where the money raised will be spent, but just to give you an idea:
£10 could buy 18 quail birds to replace stock on the 3,000 strong quail farm. The children eat the eggs and surplus are sold in the local market to generate income for the project.
£30 could fund a child’s vocational training for a month. Over the past few years Alalay have supported 14 children through courses in cookery, car mechanics, accounting, nursing and beauty, with many children going on to study at university or work. Your money could help other children to have this opportunity.
