Tanzania 2013: Fundraising starts here!

In July 2013, 18 Chew Valley students and three staff members will embark upon a once-in-a-lifetime trip to the East African country of Tanzania.

After touching down in Dar Es Salaam, the team will complete a 5-day trek through the Uluguru Mountains before carrying out a week-long volunteer project in a local community.

In order to raise funds for the experience, the students are planning a number of initiatives in the coming months - we hope to complement these endeavours through the use of our easyfundrasing site (please see blurb below).

"Easyfundraising is the simplest way to raise funds for your good cause. You shop online with your favourite stores and you raise money at the same time. It's that easy.

We work with thousands of well known retailers including Amazon, Boden, M&S, Argos, Vodafone and many more. Our retailers love supporting good causes and will donate a percentage of your spend to your cause when you shop with them through the easyfundraising site.

For example, spend £50 with Boden and you'll raise £1.25. Insure your car with the RAC and they'll donate up to £30 to your cause. Take out a new mobile contract with Vodafone and raise up to £45.00...we could go on!

What's more, we work closely with our retailers to find voucher codes and discounts so you can save money on your shopping too."

The students would very much appreciate you visiting the site below and signing up to support their expedition:
