Story
Students from King William's College on the Isle of Man took part in the One World Charity Challenge choosing to look at the work of the Wild Frontiers Foundation and the impact on the lives of the children supported through our educational projects.
One World Charity Challenge is sponsored by the H&S Davidson Trust and coordinated by the One World Centre, Isle of Man.
The Challenge sets out to give Year 12 students a greater
understanding of the developing world through researching the work of a
charity working overseas. Students working in teams are challenged to
choose a charity working overseas, which is either Manx registered or
supported by the Overseas Aid Committee, students then research the work of the charity and interview representatives from the charity. They
must put together a 10 – 12 minute multi-media presentation which
examines the effectiveness of their charity, shows cultural
understanding and looks at the impact the charity has had on the life of
a young person.
The Wild Frontiers Foundation would like to say a huge thank you to the team of five students - Seth, Petar, Gemma, Lilo and Zara - for their fantastic effort. The students not only researched and presented the work of the Foundation, they also raised £120 for the cause, while the H&S Davidson Trust awarded them with a further £750 donation to the Foundation for their efforts.
The team chose to support the Baleygon School Project.
