Other Events
Mahecas UK raises a large proportion of its funds through fund-raising events.
There are many such events, throughout the calendar year and throughout the country.
Some of the other events Mahecas UK have held in the past are:
- Film Evening
- An evening of two films, one of which featured the National Dance Troupe performing traditional dances.
- Club Night
- A club in Leeds made Mahecas UK their sponsored charity for a night.
Two members of the executive traveled there and found a very warm reception and had a great night.
- Car Boot Sales
- Car boot sales, table sales and garage sales are always great fund-raisers.
As well as providing a chance to clear your garages and attics, they are great way to meet some of your local community.
Meanwhile, you raise money which will be used to help the medical services in Malawi.
- Christmas Card Sale
- The Christmas Cards were made from winning drawings and painting of Malawi Secondary Schools’ pupils on the Theme of Christmas.
The competition was organised by MAHECAS and the winning pupils received money prizes
- Sponsored Events
- In the past these have included a "miss out weekend", whereby people were sponsored to do without one item for a whole weekend.
Others have included a sponsored dietathon by employees of the Document Management Department at IFDS in Brentwood.
Sporting events such as sponsored walks, bike rides, fun runs, etc. are also always popular.
These are just some events held to raise money for Mahecas UK.
You may have your own ideas for events, and we encourage you to do so.
