Get very excited Eddies the 2011 College Calendar  is being printed as we speak.

Profits from sales of the calendar will be split between CamFed which aims to help women out of poverty in developing countries by educating them and The Cambridge Women’s refuge which exists in Cambridge to help those women most in need.

The calendar is the perfect gift to send home for Christmas or to give you memories of Eds through the year.  The cost will be £5 per calendar, with at least £1.25 going to charity.  You can order the calendar by placing a cheque or cash in my pigeon hole (Moore, P) via bank transfer (email me for details pm401) or via PayPal by sending £5 to petermoore333@gmail.com  A low res online pdf of the calendar can be seen here Calendar 2011, the final calendar will be spiral bound A5 size.

Operation Christmas Child is the world’s largest children’s Christmas project. Since 1990 the project has brought the joy of Christmas to more than 47 million boys and girls throughout the world. Last year we sent 1.24 million shoe boxes from the UK to children in hospitals, orphanages, Internally Displaced Persons camps, homeless shelters and impoverished neighbourhoods.

With your help we want to reach even more children in the poorest parts of the world in 2010 and bring them closer to the real meaning of Christmas.  All you have to do is get an empty shoe box, wrap it in Christmassy paper and fill it with goodies.  Once its filled take a leaflet out of my pigeon hole in College (Moore, P) , fill it in and stick it on the box.  Then leave the box by my pigeon hole or send me an email and I can come get it (pm401).  More details online here

Well done Eddies,

Our Freshers Week fund-raising pizza night was a huge success when we raised £60 for local charity COPARS.   COPARS is based at Addenbrookes Hospital and supports families affected by child cancer.  Andrea and Cara and a whole host of others made a real effort during Freshers Week to create a pizza production line and get the whole College fund-raising.   The start of many charity evenings to come we hope.  Thankyou letter from COPARS available here copars thankyou
