How You Can Help

If you would like to support the work ongoing with the projects described under Current Projects you could do so in a number of different ways. Needless to say, we welcome (and need) donations, sponsorship and funds raised from events and our gift catalogue. However, we also welcome support through personal involvement, whether from a wish to know more or to form links, or on a practical level, no matter how small.

Kumi Orphans Project

The main way in which we raise funds for this worthwhile project is through the Dolen Ffermio gift catalogues, mainly at Christmas but also throughout the year.  Miriam and Emmanuel Maraka, who founded and run the Orphan Project, and everyone in Dolen Ffermio are overjoyed at the response of the people from this area and the pupils in local schools.  In just over Three years we have raised £30,000, including £8,000 this Christmas just gone.  This is even more amazing and heartening in view of the current economic downturn.

How Do I Go About It?

Simple, choose your gift from the current catalogue by Clicking Here When you have chosen, download and print the order form by Clicking Here, complete and send this, together with a cheque, made payable to “Dolen Ffermio” to Val Talbot, Graigwen Cottage, Llansilin, SY10 9BL.  Alternatively (and especially if you are pushed for time), phone Val on 01691 791310 or email val@daval.demon.co.uk
