the STOUFFVILLE IGOMA PARTNERSHIP presents…

 ‘Wheels for Water Ride’

Event Information

The Stouffville Igoma Partnership (SIP) is a registered charity with a humanitarian focus providing opportunities for people, service clubs, churches, schools and businesses within our community to participate in lending assistance and relief to the needy people of the community of Igoma, Tanzania, East Africa. We presently support the Urafiki Health Centre, its operation and its staff. As well, we operate a child sponsorship program for the very needy children in Igoma. Another major project is our secondary school assistance program, providing funds for deserving students of Igoma. We also provide scholarships for other students from this area to attend vocational training schools.

The SIP ‘Wheels for Water Ride’ will take place on Saturday June 2, 2012. The ride will begin at 8:30 am from the Stouffville Town Office (111 Sandiford Drive, Stouffville, ON) and will last approximately 5 hours. Our sincere hope is that you will consider participating as a sponsor for this worthwhile event. This is our first ride event and we are hoping to raise $ 10,000 with all the proceeds going toward our charity for the water project planned for the village of Igoma.

Your participation in this fund raising event will ensure another year of relief and support for the people of Igoma Tanzania. SIP does not receive any government assistance so all of our funds must be raised through event fundraising venues.

We are looking for financial sponsors as well as merchandise donations that can be sold or auctioned off. Thank you for the opportunity to present our needs to you and a SIP representative will contact you shortly regarding this opportunity and how you may wish to be involved in bringing relief to others who have so little. If you have any questions you can also contact a Larry Simpson (SIP Chair) at 416 990-1121 or email at lsspuds@hotmail.com.

Making a Difference

Recent expansion of the Urafiki Health Centre has allowed SIP to open a much needed Mother Child Infant Care unit as well as basic hygiene and health care education. Public health nurses are being hired for the new services.
