Imagine Senegal – 10 minute presentation from Claire Griffel

Claire from Imagine Senegal visited the InGroup today and explained how the fundraising work was started and it’s aims in helping local and international projects.

Some of the money also goes to local projects in South Lakes. Claire believes that her work should be for “Home and Away”. Her counterpart in Senegal is Idrissa Sané who works to coordinate the projects in Senegal.

Claire is a very busy organising huge amounts of fundraising work including recent events such as Fundraiser Music Evenings, A weekly stall in an Indoor market selling African, African inspired and local arts, crafts and books and Art and Photography Exhibitions and even writing and illustrating a children’s book with profits going to the charity.

Clare is very inspirational and the charity is doing lots of amazing work, we’ll share the Imagine Senegal news including the new Kendal Cosplay which will be held at Ruskins on Sunday 15 July.
