We are a small focused charity working with project partners in some of the poorest areas, helping those who need it most. Over the last 13 years our supporters have raised over £1.3million, 100% of which has gone to the grassroots projects we work with. One of our main aims is to relieve financial hardship and poverty in disadvantaged groups, working especially to improve the lives of children. We achieve this in a wide range of ways, through improving health and educational infrastructure in Malawi and Tanzania to enriching the lives of children living in urban slums in Peru and Brazil through the provision of sporting and cultural activities. We also help construct basic home for some of the poorest families in Peru and work to protect the environment through our conservation and animal care projects in Peru and Bolivia.

DANILO GETS THIN FOR VILLA MARIA!!!

Fundraiser:

For all of you who have taken part in our Villa Maria project in Peru, you will remember the ever present Danilo, and you will also remember that he was big! Nothing has changed we're afraid, he's still there, and even bigger than ever. Until this summer that is, Danilo has pledged to become thin by the end of this (Peruvian) summer.

Danilo - The beginning

Danilo - The beginning

Why, you may ask, he's such a fan of food and of sitting around doing nothing! Well the Quest school is growing fast and the classrooms in the building are no longer big enough to accommodate the ever increasing numbers they are accepting. The property next door has become available though and the team in Peru are keen to be able to snap it up as soon as possible, so they can keep doing the wonderful work they have been for over 10 year now.

Danilo's first diet meal

Danilo's first diet meal

So here's the deal. Danilo currently weighs an unhealthy 140kgs (that's around 22 stone!!!), he is aiming to drop down to a much more acceptable 100kgs by the end of March 2010 (about 15 stone). You can sponsor him for every kilo he drops, or pledge a certain amount only if he reaches the sacred 100.

For everyone who knows him, you will be fully aware that this is quite a sacrifice for the young man, please dig deep and help to make his mammoth effort worthwhile for the project.

Thank you!
