Raise a Smile
Making a difference to children’s lives.
Fundraising Appeal
‘Raise A Smile’ exists to help a small community in Tanzania called Berega. In conjunction with the local church, we work on sustainable projects such as the building of a Kindergarten, hospital staff housing and various refurbishment projects. This year all the money raised will be going to support a refurbishment project in the Orphanage, where 25 to 30 babies up to 3 years of age are looked after following the death of their mothers during childbirth.
Back to Berega - Youth Team
The youth team are leaving for Tanzania on 26th July and will be returning on 24th August.
Their main project will be painting and decorating a newly built house for a key orphanage worker.
The team will also be running four kids clubs for the local children.
The team consists of:
- Becky Coffin
- Christina Davis
