The contribution made by our volunteers aged between 19 and 79 is vital; coming from all walks of life and bringing a wide range of experience plus enthusiasm and energy, they underpin all that we do.  We know that the lives of many of our clients are changed for the better by the help and support received from the volunteers.  What is less well known is that volunteering at CAB can be a life changing experience too, a fact with which many of our volunteers will agree.

Deep Roots - St Peter's (UK, 1128016) Browse events

Donations through Virgin Money Giving are designated to support the Deep Roots youth discipleship programme. This is a Christian interdenominational organisation working in Uganda to develop young people’s relationships with Christ, encouraging discipleship and equipping the youth to understand and live out their faith. In much the same way as plants need deep roots to survive and flourish, young Christians need to develop deep roots if they are to be fruitful. Many young people hear the word of God in Uganda and respond; far more than in the West. However, opportunities to strengthen their faith and relationship with Christ are often lacking, especially in rural areas. As a result, many of the youth face the cares of their world (the legacy of armed conflict, poverty, disease and the conflicting pulls of both western and traditional cultures) with ungrounded faith, largely unsupported and unprepared. Through working with the youth, Deep Roots aims to change a nation through the transformation of individuals and communities who will practically demonstrate an alternative to the lifestyles and life choices that have lead to scourges such as HIV and AIDS, corruption, robbery, poverty and domestic violence that are sadly all too common in local society.

Ramvij Charity Fund (UK, 1136542) Browse events

Let me first begin by introducing ourselves.   Our grandfather was known as Rambhai Prince of Baroda, which is situated in the western state of Gujarat in India.  He received his prince status because he had a heart of gold.  When we say a heart of gold, what he did for people there was worth so much more.   Homelessness and starvation is rife in India, and we really want to help in carrying forward our grandfather’s legacy.  Our grandfather ensured that anyone that turned up on his doorstep was invited in and treated like a member of the family, and fed until they could eat no more.   We are a newly based charity company and we are working on our first project, which is to help raise funds for the homeless kids is KASTURBA SEVASHRAM in India.  Of course there are many other institutions that require funding for various needs, but we can only take on one project at a time until we grow more.   We have now raised more than £5,000 so are now registered with The Charity Commission for England and Wales. The Company registration number is 7274909 and the Charity Registration number for England and Wales is 1136542.   If you would like to be part of our mission to help disadvantaged children, then please help us by making a donation. You can also support the charity on a long term basis by signing up to making a monthly donation.   Donations can start from as little as £1.00. Thank You RAMVIJ
