Temwa - Sustainable Community Development, Malawi

Tuesday, 12 July 2011 16:32

Summer festivals in the UK are more popular than ever, and the three most exciting festivals are working with Temwa this year to offer you the chance to attend for small donation, or even for free!

Temwa gives you an opportunity to attend some of the UK's best festivals this summer. Tickets for Underhill, Boomtown Fair and Shambala up for grabs.

Here's what you have to do:

Shambala Festival - 25th-28th August 2011
Pair of Shambala tickets up for grabs with Temwa’s Trees for Life Appeal!

Right now, deforestation is devastating the communities of Northern Malawi causing floods, displacement, environmental degradation and soil erosion leading to poverty and hunger. We URGENTLY need to plant 250,000 trees in this area by October – the start of the rainy season in Malawi – and to expand our efforts to educate the community about the care and importance of trees.

Simply donate during July (min. £5) to our urgent appeal to plant 250,000 trees in Malawi and you could win a pair of tickets to the Shambala Festival!

How to win:
Visit the Trees for Life donation page and quote ‘SHAMBALA’ in the message box when you donate at least £5

Temwa @ Underhill Festival - 29-30 July 2011
Temwa is delighted to announce its partnership with Underhill Festival, a beautiful new music event situated in stunning Wiltshire countryside.

Acts include: Erol Alkan, Krafty Kuts, Secret Wars Graffiti, and loads more. The line-up and site are both amazing - check out more details here: www.underhillfestival.co.uk/

On 29th and 30th July 2011, Temwa will be present at the festival, but we are also looking for people to steward.
In return for just a few hours of your time (2 short shifts), you will get free entry to the festival AND be helping Temwa, as Underhill's chosen charity.
