Fund For Action Through Education (UK, 1125401) Browse events

YTD Raised: £3,520.00

It's FATE's 3rd Birthday! Help us to celebrate!   Fund for Action Through Education (FATE) helps underprivileged children in developing countries by providing them access to a good education. By supporting FATE, you can change a child’s life, giving them the opportunity to realise their dreams and break the cycle of poverty. We have a fantastic group of sponsors who each sponsor a particular child, or group of children. In return, they receive regular school reports and letters from the children...and our neverending gratitude! In addition to this, we raise money for other essential school items, such as school uniforms and text books, which is where this site comes in - please support us! £5 will buy a school child a shiny new pair of school shoes. £6 will buy a vital mosquito net to help protect a child from malaria. £10 will buy a set of text books, allowing a child to study at their own pace. £15 will buy a rechargeable light so that homework can continue when it gets dark. £20 will buy a school bag stuffed with essential school stationery. £35 will buy a smart school uniform. £50 will pay a childs school bus fare for a year. Whatever you can afford, you can be assured that we will put it to the best use possible, enabling a child to excel at school and improve their life! 100% of the money we raise goes directly to the children that we support with any administration costs (which we keep to an absolute minimum) being paid for with the gift aid that we claim.
