Children Helping Children

Girls of a New chapel opened in Wales Heard about the struggle that two sisters in Uganda heed A two hour round trip down mountain and vales Twice a day to get 20 litre of water for family needs. So they baked cakes organised fund raising The colliery band and local choir helped them out Even had a sponsored walk up Pen-y-fan *carrying Water bottles to emulate the Uganda girls plight They raised £1500 in a short time Handing it over to the Tear Fund chairman This will go towards a storage tank for water, that's fine Plus Spring wells to alleviate some of the problem This is news that shows the good grace of these children The wanting to help the less fortunate. The ability to think of others, finding a way to help Giving up their time to raise money to donate * pen-y-fan is in the Brecon Beacons a desolate area where the SAS do their training Penned 20 October 2014
