Bisong Foundation took part at the Papworth Everard
Village Fete that took place from 10 June 2017 – 11 June 2017 at the
Chequers Lane playing fields in Papworth Everard. The Fete was organised
by the Papworth Everard Parish Council.
Our aim to take part in this fete was to raise funds that will help to
reduce the impact of poverty on orphans, young people and families we
support in Cameroon. We feel that poverty is an issue that we see
affecting orphans and families in most of the work we do. We believe it
is outrageous that individuals should suffer the consequences of
poverty.
Our aim was also to raise awareness of the causes and services
of Bisong Foundation.
Funds were raised through BBQ, food and drinks sale. These funds would
be used to provide food, clothing and medication to those living in
hardship. Funds will also be used to offer scholarships to orphans with
the aim of enabling them to acquire education.
We met a lot of generous people and members of other charity
organisations. They were highly interested in the work we do and
promised to support our work through donations.
