Self Help Africa says a big seasonal \u2018thank you\u2019 to our incredible supporters.<\/p>\n

This Autumn alone, in excess of 1,500 friends lent us their support<\/strong> \u2013 attending and participating in events and challenges \u2013 and in so doing contributing almost \u20ac1,000,000<\/strong> to support our work in Africa.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s an unbelievable amount, and to all those involved we express our heartfelt gratitude.<\/p>\n

The picture collage above is just a small fraction of the faces who helped us in so many ways in just a few short months since last Summer.<\/p>\n

If you look closely you may be able to spot an Olympic gold medalist, star of one of the most successful ever TV shows, a sports presenter, former Miss USA, international rugby star, TV talent show host and many more \u2013 farmers, lawyers, chefs, students, hoteliers, authors, bankers, restaurateurs, journalists, brokers, business owners, designers, engineers, teachers, doctors, photographers- even a rap artist !<\/p>\n

To Kenyan world record holder and Olympic champion David Rudisha, \u00a0to Soprano’s star Vincent Pastore, to former Miss USA Nana Meriwether, to British and Irish Lions rugby star Sean O’Brien, and to the many others who lent their backing in 2013 – we say ‘Thank You.’<\/p>\n

At Self Help Africa we\u2019re indebted to those who\u2019ve helped out, and made 2013 a very special year for us, and more importantly for many rural poor households in Africa.<\/p>\n
