Pipal Tree Foundation

Happy to support The Pipal Tree foundation with a small donation again (£100). They do fantastic work in Nepal, bringing educational opportunities to children from the poorest communities and castes, giving girls an education when they'd otherwise receive none. It's a really-well managed charity, based in SW England; we spend a lot of time looking at charities and how they're run, how the feed back on their work when the money is spent, and how much of the money gets to where it needs, and Pipal Tree is a good one we can recommend - take a look at their excellent work.

Today we've given £50 to Maricel in Cebu in the Philippines. She's 43, married with 3 kids (youngest age 4) and she runs a small eatery 7 days a week. She has set up a simple cafe near to a University and the money will help her pay costs during the non-term quieter periods. It'll also help her buy additional food supplies and other items needed to support and expand the business. Thanks to Care International for administering this.

Like everyone, we've been shocked by the appalling scenes from Venezuela following the recent earthquakes. We've today donated £100 to help assist (via the UK Disasters and Emergency Committee fund) and we wish the aid workers well in assisting those affected. The funds will be used to help provide temporary shelter, food and medical aid.
