September's News
It seems a long time since we published anything on this blog. This doesn't mean that nothing has been happening - so here is a summary:
Pageant has now registered with MyCharityPage.This means that anyone who wants to organise a challenge or charity event can now raise funds using their facilities, and channel donations direct to Pageant. Read more on our Fundraisers Page.
Pippa and Ian had their annual Open House for Pageant members back in July, and we now have some pictures of this on this news page.
We have just dispatched another container to The Gambia, packed with furniture, educational supplies and other goods. Sending containers is now a rare event because of the costs involved, and we prefer to spend Pageant's money directly in The Gambia, where it also encourages local businesses. See pictures of packing the container.
Andy Robinson, of Affording Gambia VIP, has just released the 2008/2009 editions of his 'Discovering with Discount' Guide and Promotion Books. The Promotion Book offers discounts in shops, restaurants and other places, so you can easily recover the cost of the books just by using the vouchers. Please order through the Pageant website, and Pageant will get a donation from Andy for books ordered in this way. (See more details)
