Concern is a non-denominational development agency currently working in 27 countries worldwide. Concern's work focuses on three key areas: humanitarian disasters, long-term development, education and advocacy. There are now as many people living in extreme poverty as lived in the entire world a century ago.

We are trying to raise EUR 250,000 for a specific project in Zambia. Zambia is one of worlds poorest and most debt-ridden countries. About 160,000 people live in the Mongu district in Zambia. All money raised will go towards a pilot project in this area. The project we are trying to fund is a livelihood project. The idea is to raise enough money to help set this community up properly by showing them how to farm efficiently, HIV/AIDS being tackled through education, effective water systems being put in place and much more.

In a nutshell, we want to try to address the poverty in this area for the 160,000 inhabitants so that it does not need to be addressed again. I suppose to quote a very topical expression; we want to make poverty history in this area.

Anybody who is reading this CAN help us achieve this goal by following the link below and donating to concern online or by contacting Concern if you would like to get involved in one or our outdoor challenges. Don’t put it on the long finger, do it NOW !
