How you can help
Goods
We have limited need for donated goods because of the cost of getting them to Tanzania and the lack of storage space in England. If you have gifts to donate please be sure to contact us before making any donation of them.

Fundraising
We always welcome people to help with our fundraising. Whether you are able to run a marathon and collect sponsorship, host a barbecue or other event, hold a plant sale, or whatever, we are most grateful for support. We can assist with charity sponsor forms, leaflets about our work, and some posters showing our work. If you feel you could help us please contact us.
Shopping
VEPK is now one of three featured charities on Good Buying, a not-for-profit website. If you access your online retailer (such as Amazon, Tesco, Boots, and dozens of others) via the Good Buying website, it will raise money for charity, including Village Education Project Kilimanajaro.
