Aim: After 40 years in education, and 20 at Sheffield College, I am retiring on January 25th. This is my retirement fundraiser!
For a retirement present, I would love to raise some money for my favourite charity, Practical Action.
Your donation will help create a world where smallholder farmers can earn a decent living while working in harmony with the environment. Where parents can cook nutritious family meals without risking their health. And where businesses, schools and clinics have the electricity they need to help their communities succeed.
They are working towards a world where people in slum communities and refugee camps live in safety and dignity. Women entrepreneurs have the confidence and the skills to build profitable businesses. And people on the front line of climate change can adapt to the challenges of extreme weather and thrive.
The communities they work with face significant challenges. The effects of climate change, environmental degradation, and the ongoing pandemic make this a critical time. But they see the opportunities for positive change and their goals are not only achievable, but have never been more relevant.
