A New Partnership Begins!

Global Sunrise is happy to announce a new partnership with TASC Madagascar!

TASC Madagascar aims to reduce poverty and ill health in the Vohipeno region of Madagascar, through focusing on the root causes of poverty and integrating education, sanitation, and general self-sufficiency. To see their aims in more detail, please visit their website.

Global Sunrise are working to provide the Children's home, the Foyer des handicapés, the dormitories, and the offices, enabling the use of computers, with solar power, in Tanjomoha, Madagascar. This will substantially improve the quality of care given at the clinics and improve the standard of living for the children, patients and staff. We are very excited to get this project underway and will keep you updated on our progress.

We are very excited about furthering the cause of this charity, and investing in the future of those in the Vohipeno region.

Our Cake Sale outside the University library on Thursday 20th March was definitely a success! In fact, we did so well, we sold out of cake in the penultimate hour- a big thank you to all who made cake, manned the stall, spread awareness of our charity and bought cake! We managed to raise £105.54, so definitely worth celebrating.
