ANNUAL SUMMER BBQ

Date- Saturday the 7th of September 2013

Time- 3pm – 7pm

Venue- 178 Rotherhithe New Road, London, SE16 2AP

Please do confirm your attendance for catering purpose

Summer BBQ is one of the NVF’s annual fundraising events. It has been a reliable source of income to support the work we do in Nepal. It also helps us to get in touch with and know our donors/supporters better.

We have achieved a lot with your help over the years and we want to do more for bigger impact. But for this we need more resources therefore we are participating in the Global Giving Challenge. It involves raising £4000 pounds from 50 donors between 1st and 30th of June 2013. This is only way to participate in the challenge and if we meet this target then we will be rewarded with a permanent place in the Global Giving fundraising community. This means a lot for small organisation like us and it will bring a long term sustainable source of income. Thus, this year BBQ event is to raise funds to meet the target.

A £20 of donation is ideal to cover the cost of event/per person and anything on the top is much appreciated. You can make donation online at www.nvf.org.uk or cash on the day and cheques are payable to ‘Nepal Village Foundation (UK)’.

Transport and parking;

Surrey Quays and Canada Water are the nearest tube stations and Corbett’s Lane the Jolly Gardeners is bus stop on no 1 and 381 Bus. The bus stop is right in front of the venue. Parking is available on Debnams road or Corbett’s lane.

Looking forward to welcoming you

Nepal Village Foundation (NVF) is organising Curry and Beer annual event on the Saturday the 26^th of January 2013 at 2:30pm. Address is 178 Rotherhithe New Road, London, SE16 2AP. This year we have decided to organise the event in January to avoid the busy festive time.  I hope this date will work well for you to enjoy the classic cookery by Carole and Krit. Like the last year, we will be cooking variety of curries that are suitable for all tastes and diets.

You all have been brilliant supporters which help us to continue the work we do in Nepal. Money raised from this event will go to organise an awareness raising street drama about the importance of girl’s education. We found out that there are many parents in the village who can afford education for their daughters but still there are many girls not attending school. So raising awareness about the importance education will increase girl’s participation in schooling.

A £20 of donation from each supporter will be an ideal to cover the cost of event and support the work however you can make donation of any amount. You can make donation online at www.nvf.org.uk or cash on the day and cheques are payable to ‘Nepal Village Foundation (UK)’.
