In the charity's own words
Our small charity was set up in memory of Thomas Marshall who died before he could take up his university place. We raise funds to help with the education of the disadvantaged and mostly rural poor in Mozambique. The funds help with college fees, accommodation, uniform and school equipment and are administered in Mozambique by Francois and Alta Rauch on the charity's behalf.
