Charity
Salt of the Earth was founded in 1988 to raise money to help the rural poor in Tamil Nadu, India, through its partner organisation Social Change and Development (SCAD). A wide range of activities is funded including health, education, community projects, water and income generating projects. The aim is to increase the quality of life of families whose income is often less than £250 per year. This year we are supporting the 2011 Rickshaw Run organised by the International Rescue Corps to raise money for our projects.
Please note Virgin Money Giving isn't responsible for the content fundraisers post on their pages, but if you see something you feel is offensive or inappropriate, please let us know and we'll look into it.

In the spring of 2011 we will be participating in The Rickshaw Run; racing a pimped up tuk tuk over thousands of miles from Kerala in southern India to Shillong in the northeast. We are raising money for a worthwhile charity supporting communities in rural Tamil Nadu.
Further information on the event and the charity can be found in the lefthand column of this page.
Thanks in advance for your generous support!
