A hands-on donation

A hands-on donation
Share on FacebookShare on X

Channel Men’s Shed (CMS) recently contacted Pam Lane from Community Against Poverty (CAP) to inquire if their organisation could use a variety of preloved hand tools that had been donated by the community.
CAP is part of the E3 Global Adventure Project who help third world country towns become self-sufficient by helping the villagers improve their living standards with a hands-on approach.
As these small communities don’t have electricity hand tools are often more useful.
The variety of tools donated by CMS members will be delivered by Pam and other volunteers to their final overseas destination.
“Our local community never ceases to amaze us,” Pam Lane said.
“The generosity of organisations, such as the Channel Men’s Shed, makes a huge difference to the disadvantaged communities we work with overseas.
“Small things can really make a difference and it shows that we can all make a positive impact in the world.”
