Santa Maria Education Fund

Hola! In July 2025 myself and 20 students from The Sixth Form College Colchester will be going to Paraguay for an adventure of a lifetime!

We will be supporting the charitable work of The Santa Maria Education Fund (SMEF) in the small town of Santa Maria de Fe. The charity runs an educational centre that helps some of Paraguay's most disadvantaged young people and adults to access and continue their education, including English as a Foreign Language lessons.

As a group we are aiming to raise £10,000 for SMEF. Should you wish to support the important work of SMEF and help us reach our fundraising target, please do consider donating. My personal goal is to raise £500 towards our final amount.

All money will be transferred to the Paraguay fundraising pot at The Sixth Form College. Alternatively, feel free to donate directly to SMEF via their website (www.santamariadefe.org) but do let me know that you have done so.
