Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving Page.
In June 2016, Madeleine Richardson and Josie Partridge will be travelling to the Kangra Valley of Northern India to work with the heart-warming Tong-Len charity. Their mission is to help slum communities in North india achieve a secure and sustainable future, by addressing the root cause of their extreme poverty through a range of education and health-based projects.
Primary and nursery tuition tents are in action for up to 300 children, which provides them with a free basic education. "For most of these youngsters it is the first time they have ever had the chance to play with toys.” We will be helping to teach in these tuition tents in any way we can.
It would be wonderful if you could spare any amount of money to help us raise funds that will improve the lives of these youngsters. Tong-Len relies on donations for much of their work and with the power of education and good-health, the children can look to a hopeful future for themselves and their families.
