After receiving a very generous donation of 5 full sets of Burgess Hill Town Football Club shirts at the end of last year we are exciting to announce that the shirts will be flying out to our Children's project in the shanty town of Villa Maria, Peru on Sunday. We first met with Garry and Gary from BHTFC in November 2009 when the aforementioned Garry walked in off the street to ask about what we do. Since then numerous ideas have emerged and hopefully over the years a strong collaboration between BHTFC and Quest4Change will be established to the benefit of both parties.
The shirts (pictured above) will benefit both youth and adult teams, who are currently forming a community league.
Quest4Change has been working in Villa Maria for 13years. Our projects help the children of this, one of the world's largest shanty towns, escape and avoid the prevalent drugs culture. Find out more here.
