Soul Action: Slum Survivor

get sponsored...

The hope is that as well as changing the attitudes and perceptions of those involved, Slum Survivor would also be used as a fund-raiser the work Soul Action support in poor communities in South Africa, Zimbabwe and elsewhere around the globe.

As your group learns about the experiences of the 1 billion slum dwellers in our world they can also be actively doing something to bring about positive change. See a few examples of the types of projects that Soul Action works with by clicking here (GO>>).

sponsorship tips

Encourage your group to collect money from sponsors at the time of the pledge if possible as this saves time chasing up the people after the event. Together as a group, set a realistic but ambitious amount to aim for in your fundraising efforts.

Make sure that each person who takes a form returns the form and any money raised.  Collect all forms issued, even from people who haven’t raised any money.
