Broughton Primary School Trust (UK, SC044041) Browse events

YTD Raised: £1,917.50

Broughton Primary is a city centre school with a wide catchment area and a rich mix of cultures and faiths, committed to bringing the best to each of our children. Broughton Primary School Trust was set up to support the Parent Staff Association (PSA) to make the most of fundraising opportunities which benefit the children, staff and parents who make the school a vital and much loved part of the local community. Throughout the year we run events to raise money for Broughton and to date we've funded Gaelic football, iPads for digital learning, scooterpods, the Christmas pantomime and loose play parts for outdoor fun and learning. Our wider aim is to raise £25,000 to make much needed improvements to the playground. Being in the heart of a busy, and developing community brings with it challenges as the school roll grows, and new classrooms have been built in the playground to accommodate the additional local children attending Broughton.  So, it's important that the space the children have access to for playing, relaxing and learning is the best it can be. Children, staff and parents are working together to bring to life an ambitious and much needed vision for a better environment for the children who attend the school, and live in the local area. Can you help us make the vision a reality?

Teach A Man To Fish (UK, 1112699) Browse events

YTD Raised: £1,875.00

At Teach A Man To Fish we believe that education is the real key to tackling global poverty. We support pioneering education projects in some of the worlds poorest countries - giving young people a chance to learn the skills to help themselves. Our approach is unique in aiming for long-term financial sustainability. Alongside class-based lessons, student-run businesses generate income which helps cover the schools costs, an education that pays for itself! So when our students leave school they not only have a qualification, but entrepreneurial and practical skills which they can use to earn a living. Successful projects to date have supported Ugandan schools in pig keeping, funded poor Kenyan students through a school run poultry farm and helped a school in Paraguay become completely self-sufficient. Teach a Man to Fishs Escuela Agricola project in Paraguay was last year named the Runner Up in the BBCs global World Challenge awards, which celebrate enterprise and innovation at a grass roots level.
