Will Young's Cycle Tour of Ireland
Will has completed his 1500 mile cycle round Ireland and has raised over £3500 for CSMF.
We at CSMF are incredibly impressed by this astonishing feat especially as he finished the ride within 14 days with the bumpy road taking significant toll on Will's behind. We would like to thank Will for this fantastically kind and generous act that will make a really significant difference to the children we support in Kenya.

The big news at the moment is that CSMF is a registered charity
This has been a long process which we started in September 2009 was finally granted in June 2010. This has very exciting implications for the future sustainability of our charity.

Birmingham to Mutunyi.
Alex Sumption and 5 other volunteers from Birmingham university are going to teach at the school for 3 weeks in August. This will give us an opportunity to check up on current CSMF projects and hopefully make a little difference to some of the students at the school. One of our main focuses will be to encourage sport among the girls at the school who are immensely keen and yet never get the opportunity to play.

Hannah Markowska and Georgia Haughton went to Mutunyi school in January 2010 and did a great job in getting the library properly up and running and teaching in the school. They were the first girls to go to Mutunyi and made a big impact especially on the big man, Moses. They also made an incredible effort in raising £4000 for CSMF. Some of this was used to send 1000 books to Mutunyi school. We would like to thank them for this amazing contribution.
