Secondary School Scholarships for Girls Living in Kibera Slum

Hello dear friends,Lavenda, Dolphin, Sharon, Pauline and Judith are five girls that grew up in Kibera slum. They finished their free primary school studies at Kibera Hamlets in 2016, though were unable to pursue their secondary school studies as they lacked the financial resources. Thanks to the generosity of many donors, the girls were able to get back to school in 2018 by attending the Migori Educational Centre, a private non-profit boarding school. They passed their first year with tremendous grades and have been promoted to the next class (Form Two). Our goal is now to keep them in school by raising a total of 169,000 Ksh (approx. 1,450€) before the 31 December 2018. This sum will fully fund the girls' next academic year that starts in January 2019. It will cover all expenses including boarding fees, tuition fees, activity charges, exams, and their academic trip. Please donate whatever you can, every little bit helps! All payments are 100% secure. Thank you!

Missione Natale: distribuzione di torte, biscotti e dolcetti

Oggi vorrei chiedere un attimo del vostro tempo per parlarvi di un progetto a cui tengo particolarmente. Forse alcuni di voi sapranno che attualmente mi trovo a Jaipur, India, per occuparmi di volontariato e sostenere una ONG no-profit e a base giovanile chiamata Naya Sawera.L’associazione è attiva già da diversi anni e ha compiuto grandi progressi nel contribuire al miglioramento delle condizioni di vita di quella fetta (purtroppo non così marginale) di società che si ritrova priva di agevolazioni e servizi a causa di povertà e mancanza di opportunità. Avendo assistito in prima persona a ciò che un semplice aiuto può effettivamente comportare per queste persone, benché possa sembrare minimo e apparentemente banale, mi sento ora motivata ad iniziare una raccolta fondi che possa portare avanti l’ottimo lavoro dell’associazione. E dal momento che mi ritrovo a celebrare il periodo natalizio lontano da casa e insieme a questo meraviglioso team, ho pensato di condividere con voi questo progetto. Ogni anno Naya Sawera organizza una sorta di “Missione Natale: Distribuzione di Torte, Biscotti e Dolcetti” e distribuisce tortini di patate, muffin e un regalino a circa 500-700 bambini in occasione di una festa speciale organizzata appositamente per i bambini dell’orfanotrofio. Per chiunque volesse contribuire a rendere tutto questo possibile, vi chiederei gentilmente di donare anche semplicemente 1EURO alla raccolta fondi.Considerando che qui 1EURO equivale sostanzialmente a 80 Rupie, e che 1000 Rupie sono poco più di 12 euro, è proprio vero che in questo caso un contributo così semplice può realmente fare la differenza!Se tutti donassimo anche solo 1EURO potremmo davvero cambiare qualcosa durante queste vacanze natalizie.  Perciò se volete aiutare a rallegrare il Natale di questi bambini ed essere il Babbo Natale personale di ciascuno di loro, siete nel posto giusto :)  Grazie mille per la vostra attenzione,e per dubbi e/o ulteriori informazioni non esitate a contattarmi!! Sara

Save the archives of the Tobacco Musem of Kavala

Βοηθήστε να διασώσουμε το αρχείο του Μουσείου Καπνού Καβάλας!Save the archives of the Tobacco Museum of Kavala!  [ENG follows] Η φωτογραφία αυτή απεικονίζει μέρος του ιστορικού αρχείου καπνού στο Μουσείο Καπνού που κοσμεί την πόλη μας. Η ιστορική και πολιτιστική κληρονομιά της πόλης μας και ενός μεγάλου κομματιού του νομού Καβάλας. Σκοπός της λειτουργίας του μουσείου καπνού είναι η διάσωση και η προβολή της τοπικής κοινωνικής και βιομηχανικής ιστορίας και της ιστορίας των προσφύγων.Εκτός από τον εκθεσιακό χώρο που γνωρίζουμε όλοι, το μουσείο διαθέτει πλέον τα περισσότερα αρχεία σχετικά με τον καπνό της Βόρειας Ελλάδας.Ενδεικτικά το αρχείο της Ομοσπονδίας Καπνεμπόρων, του Ελληνικού Συλλόγου Εξαγωγικών Οίκων Αθηνών και Πειραιώς, της Ανατολικής Μακεδονίας και της Θράκης, αρχεία εταιρειών Θεσσαλονίκης και Καβάλας και σωματείων καπνεργατών. Επειδή όμως η εικόνα αυτή είναι ντροπιαστική αλλά και επικίνδυνη διότι μπορεί να υπάρξει φθορά και καταστροφή του αρχείου:▪οφείλουμε όλοι οι Καβαλιώτες και Καβαλιώτισσες να αναλάβουμε δράση και να κάνουμε δικό μας το κομμάτι αυτό της ιστορίας μας.▪Να ενισχύσουμε όλοι μας την προσπάθεια των συντελεστών του Μουσείου Καπνού για διάσωση και αρχειοθέτηση όλων των εγγράφων, φωτογραφιών κτλ.▪Να ξανασυζητήσουμε για την ιστορία της πόλης και της περιοχής μας. Περιμένω τις ιδέες σας για να κάνουμε μια επανεκκίνηση και να διασώσουμε την κληρονομιά όλων μας. *κοινοποιήστε και σε φίλους και γνωστούς σας για να ενημερωθούν όλοι και όλες. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  This photo shows part of the historical tobacco archive at the Tobacco Museum located in Kavala. The historical and cultural heritage of our city and a large part of the prefecture of Kavala. The aim of the tobacco museum is to rescue and promote local social and industrial history and refugee history. In addition to the exhibition space we all know, the museum now has the most records on Northern Greece's tobacco. Indicatively, the archives of the Tobacco Federation, the Greek Association of Exporting Companies of Athens and Piraeus, Eastern Macedonia and Thrace, archives of companies from Thessaloniki and Kavala and from several tobacco trade unions. However this image is embarrassing and dangerous since the archives can be damaged and destroyed:▪ All citizens of Kavala and all our friends we should take action and make our own part of our history.▪ We should all contribute and strengthen the efforts of the Tobacco Museum to rescue and archive all documents, photographs, etc.▪ We should not forget our history of our city and region. * Inform/share this with your friends and acquaintances and let everyone know about this project!

A helping hand for the homeless

Hello everyone & welcome to this money pot! I have decided to create this pot to help the homeless and in need people with work with who are facing poverty and disadvantage on a daily basis. The money will be put DIRECTLY towards the people who need it most.i will buy things like cheap phones so they can be contacted about interviews for accommodation and benefits, I will buy socks, warm coats from charity shops, hot food,  cup of tea, possibly put the money towards ID cards or birth cirtificates. ANYTHING that will enable someone to take a step forward out of the darkness of their current situation.too often I find there are so many barriers for some people to begin to make a change, something so simple as a 9.97 birth cirtificate can enable that person to prove who they are in order to gain employment or to make a claim for benefits - in turn helping them towards the cost of living and getting a better life!!i will mostly be using this for my direct work purposes but if anyone I know or knows of anyone in need of something simple THIS is what this money will be for.any amount will be so helpful and I will post updates of what has been brought :) thanks all ✌🏼❤️   With just 1-click you can support a community project on an individual in need* Give however much you want* All payments are 100% secure* Why Leetchi.com?

Financial relief for Birgit to finish renovating her house

Original article published on RTL : https://today.rtl.lu/life/people/1264288.html)  Birgit S. and her husband chose the wrong construction company to renovate their house and ended up with the money gone and (almost) nothing in return! if you wish to help Birgit and her family, you can donate via this money pot!  Birgit, originally from Austria, fell into the same trap that has conned many people here in Luxembourg, a pitfall that residents should guard themselves against.After living in a couple of places around Europe, they came to Luxembourg where they decided to start looking for a house. She says “the housing market in Luxembourg is not easy!” so they were extremely pleased when they eventually found a house in June this year, through a local Facebook group. The house was in need of major renovation works and, out of the eight construction companies that they contacted, five showed up for consultations on the prospective modifications. Their preferred choice of company had no available time to take on the project, so they opted for one of the remaining ones, where the estimated price seemed close enough to what they had in mind. They checked if the company was registered in Luxembourg and were happy to even discover a number of recommendations for it posted online. The company asked for an initial down payment, which Birgit paid and at first, things went smoothly - business as usual. The firm started out with some smaller construction works and after five weeks they asked for a second down payment which was duly handed over. Soon after that things took a decidedly different turn. The company deigned to only occasionally show up, or not at all, claiming that they had some license issues. It was then that the alarm bells rung and it became clear to Birgit that something was going wrong. With an uneasy feeling they went to check on their house, only to find 2 workers taking down the scaffolding. Birgit's first thought was: “This cannot be true” and when asking the two people what it was that they were doing, they replied that they were commissioned by Birgit´s contractor to remove the scaffolding but that they didn't know anything more. They left the house with the unfinished façade exposed. It took her a couple of days to finally reach the construction company and then she received a rather abrupt email. It said that they were very sorry but that the company needs to close as there was no money left.Birgit reached out to the police, their bank, a lawyer and the ULC, Luxembourg’s consumer protection organisation but it was not clear how things will develop. What is clear is that they need to wait for the company's official liquidation entry and for the liquidation of their current contract until they can move on. They now need to look for other construction companies which could prove even more difficult since firms are reluctant to take over the work of others.Thank you!

Meetup Annual Subscription Fee (Justin)

Hello everyone & welcome to this money pot!With Meetup.com subscription fees ever increasing and now charging VAT on top, I have launched this money pot to collect the annual fees for the two book groups I run off the same organizer subscription. Meetup remains a great app and website to use to host groups like ours, but unfortunately it is not cheap! Currently, the fee is $89.94 for six months. So the total for the year is twice that, plus 20% VAT. Converting that into sterling and adding the small amount that this platform charges to withdraw the sums once collected, that comes to £177. This is completely voluntary but your contribution is gratefully appreciated. I will set the target as the amount due for the year. Once I have collected enough money to meet the fees for the year, the money pot will close, so you can be sure your contribution will be going towards the Meetup subscription alone.  How much you contribute is up to you. I estimate that if everyone attending paid between 75p and £1 for each meetup they attended (or anticipated attending) throughout the year, we would reach our target comfortably. I have set up the money pot so that everyone can see the target amount and the amount collected so far, but nobody other than you and I will be able to see what you have contributed. If you wish to contribute in cash at one of our meetups, please feel free to do so. I will simply take it into account and adjust the online target downwards. Many thanks in advanceJustin
