Story
Often the children who attend the Mumba DayCare Centre in Mpongwe go to school without having breakfast and their lunch of nshima or maize and beans at the school will often be the only meal they have each day. The children don't have uniforms or desks and only have one well at the centre for water and limited electricity. The children eat and drink in their one classroom that has dirt floors. The teacher and cooks sometimes work for free so help is needed for the children.

8 years agoThank you all so much for helping me to reach and exceed the target that I set. This is fantastic - I only started with my friend Shaphaty in Mpongwe who I wanted to help and have managed to help 13 children. I wasn't sure what to do to raise the money but I tried as many things as I could and was even really excited to be running on Christmas Day because I know how I am helping children not as fortunate as me. I am looking forward to giving the money to Hildah at the Mumba Children's Project and finding out what children I am helping. I am also looking forward to meeting them one day soon and seeing what else I can do to help. I will be continuing to raise money in 2016 so please let me know if you have any ideas to help me help more children. I'd like to be able to update you on how your money has helped so would you please email my mum at th3flints@hotmail.co.uk with your email address and I'll let you know personally how the children are doing. Thanks you. Saxon x

I am a 9 year old fundraiser. I have already raised over £1,000 for poor children. I live in the UK and want to help other children who are less fortunate than me. I am using my own pocket money and I'm working to earn extra and need help to raise more. Thanks for reading x
