I am part of the 2024 Project Africa which is a Berkshire Scouts international community project and global awareness programme. Put simply: young people supporting young people!
For the past 12 years Berkshire Scouts has been supporting and helping with projects at rural primary schools in Africa.
Previously we have visited Uganda but this year we have decided to partner with 'Joshua in Malawi' and support their work in the Blantyre area. 'Joshua' have 17 feeding stations in the area as well as supporting other community projects in local villages. Many community facilities were destroyed or badly damaged in the recent Cyclone Freddy and Berkshire Scouts will help to rebuild. See the work of 'Joshua in Malawi' (a British charity) by visiting their website: Joshua
I am one of the just under 100 Berkshire Scouts and leaders will be travelling to Malawi in the summer of 2024 to work alongside local builders in building a new community care centre, refurbishing an existing centre in a nearby village; and improving latrines at both sites. The centres will be used by 'Joshua' for feeding stations, pre-schools, and general community use.
Our fundraising target is: £500
Gross monies raised so far: £117
Supporters so far: 13
