(UK, 1117680) Browse eventsColombian Happy Faces is a small charity committed to fighting child poverty in Colombia, South America. Often working directly with street children, past projects have included getting orphaned and abandoned children into a care centre when they had previously been forced to work and beg at traffic lights just to survive. Our current project is co-funding a residential home and care centre for children with AIDS in Neiva, south-west Colombia. The building structure has now been completed but funds are urgently needed to complete the fit-out and provide the specialist equipment that is essential to help care for these sick children. Colombian Happy Faces is run on an entirely voluntary basis so every penny of your donation goes directly to helping some of the most disadvantaged children in South America.

(UK, 1036069) Browse eventsWe give respite holidays (within the UK) to families who have a child suffering with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Every family we help has been referred to us by their CF child's hospital. The children and their families come from all over the UK and we help almost 200 families each year. When a family is referred to us they are never turned down for a holiday. However, they occasionally have to wait until we have sufficient funds available to be able to help them. Once we are able to offer them a respite holiday we ask the family where they want to go and when (within our budgetary constraints) and then book the holiday for them. If needed we also help with travel to and from their selected holiday venue.

Bounce provides cricket facilities and coaching to clubs and youngsters in the Midlands The cricket centre was set up in 2010 by Heath Parnell and I, along with a few very generous individuals and supporters. How do we spend your money? The cricket centre loses money each year, we tread a very delicate line between charging for our facilities but also making it such a small amount that local clubs and individuals come to centre, use it, bring their friends who may be interested in playing the beautiful game of cricket.The centre is due in 2016 to refit it's playing surfaces - currently from funds it does not have.

(UK, 1117093) Browse eventsVerité Sport exists to promote a Christian presence in the world of sport, encouraging sports people to believe in Jesus Christ and applying the teaching of the Bible to sport. We do this through resources such as sporting devotionals, books, one-to-ones and sports chaplaincy. Verité also provides resources and equipment to enable people in the UK and overseas to participate in sport, partnerships which are often made possible through a Christian working in the world of sport in a given country. This page focuses particularly on Verité Sport's partnership with Laura Kyte and husband Fabio Gonzalez, based in the north of Argentina. The partnerhip was established in November 2012 and whilst Verité Sport is not Laura’s employer or sending agency, director Stuart Weir and the board provide accountability, supervision, prayer, advocacy and a means of tax-efficient giving. Laura writes: "In April 2014, we moved from the chaotic capital city of Buenos Aires to Fabio's home town, Cachi, 3 hours away from the provincial capital city of Salta, at 2400m above sea level. Cachi is frequently visited by athletes training at alititude for between 3 and 6 weeks, and we try and get alongside them as much as possible, having already hosted several in our new home. We have also set up an athletics team for young runners and race walkers, called "Más que Vencedores" (More than Conquerors, after Romans 8.37). Through our training methods and the opportunities to get alongside the young people, we aim to communicate Biblical values which we pray will stick with the young people for life, and eventually resulting in a full knowledge and understanding of who Christ is and who they are in Him. The athlete-coach relationship provides opportunities to share our lives and get alongside the young people in those moments of victory and defeat, strength and weakness, that sport so often brings to light." This page has been set up alongside the Verité Sport website to keep those interested up to date and to facilitate tax-efficient giving, enabling Fabio and Laura to continue to devote their time to getting alongside athletes and young people in Cachi.
