The Freedom Bus
Donation protected
Hi,
I'm siobhan, I'm a model based in London and I'm raising money along side my best friend Charlotte Atkinson and some of my model friends for a charity based in the slums of Delhi. Stricken by some of the worst poverty in the world, this charity was bought to my attention when I visited for a Slum walk whilst there on a work trip. Ever since I have been working along side the Co founder, Shiva who is based close to the slums and the UK ambassador Nickie Purewal.
This charity ia called PROVIDING EDUCATION TO EVERYONE or PETE. It aims to give children an education and guide them through to their adult life where they will use their learnings to attain jobs and careers. This school also gives safe and good childcare to the parents of the slums enabling them to go out to work in the city This charity is very small and is currently only registered in India. It only survives on donations of clothes and items bought by tourists and money attained from charging tourists to do a Slum walks.
My goal is to raise enough money to buy a bus for this charity which will open a whole new level of support and help. Not only can it be used for safely taking the children out and about but it can also be used to transport children from surrounding slums safely to the PETE school. The bus will also be used in PETEs sister school in the hymalayan nirvan commune to collect children from surrounding villages and transport them to the school in the commune. This bus will massively help this community. To buy a new bus will cost around £10,000 and to buy a second hand one will cost £5,000.
Imagine knowing your little boy/girl/sister/brother/nice or nephew could be safely picked up from home and taken to a school in a safe environment without fear of being run over or worse on the way.
Any sponsors wanting to can have their company name put onto the bus and on the website.
I myself and Charlotte will be going to Delhi to buy this bus hopefully in October so I really hope to have this money raised by then. I will document and film it all.
Thank you so much in advance.
