October 2011 - struggling for Christmas present ideas? Why not sponsor a child? Contact us if you’d like a gift card to acknowledge your sponsor-ship.

October 2011  - we wish Tim Stock all the best for his stay in Ruboni - our eyes and ears on the ground for the next few months. If you would like to volunteer in Ruboni, please contact us.

June 2011 - we were delighted to receive a large anonymous donation. We have decided to expand the CSP to 40 children from January 2012 and to increase our sponsorship per child to meet recent inflation. We will support requests for short further education courses that are likely to lead to jobs.

May 2011 - a huge thanks to all those who generously sponsored our walk along the South Downs Way (from Eastbourne to Ditchling Beacon, 29.5 miles in one day). Any further donations can still be made at  www.justgiving.com/sarahlouis eemma

Making a donation

To support a child, we’d ask you to donate £6 per month. It costs approximately £72 per year in school fees for one child.

To make a donation online, either for a one-off amount or for a monthly standing order, please visit our webpage at www.justgiving.com.

If you’d rather make a donation by cheque, please make the cheque payable to the “Rwenzori Trust”, write your name and address on the back, and send it to us at the Rwenzori Trust, Glebe House, 10a Cannon Place, London NW3 1EJ, together, if applicable, with a gift aid form (see below). If you’d like us to send you a receipt, please provide an email address or postal address. (A stamped addressed envelope would help us out here).

Gift aid

If you are a UK taxpayer, your generous donation will be topped up by the government at no cost to you and considerable benefit to us! Please print off and sign the attached form if you meet the criteria here.

Fundraising events

The photo below is of the seven tired walkers who completed 29.5 miles from Eastbourne to Ditchling Beacon on 7 May 2011, raising over £5,000 for the Rwenzori Trust. We’ll let you know when we plan our next fundraising event.
