Where does your money go?

The money you raise for this year's Sucata Rallies will help Gemin-i run more educational projects connecting young people worldwide. One of the projects you will be helping to support is an HIV and AIDS awareness project (entitled "HIV360) launched last year in countries around the globe. A summary of the project can be found below, however, you can also download a more detailed PDF overview of the project

Connect: Gemin-i aim to connect schools in the developing and developed world to discuss the issues associated with HIV and AIDS.

Learn: Children will share ideas online and learn about the tangible ways they can play a role in combating HIV and AIDS.

Change: Schools will then be provided with tailored resources and tools to help them to join campaigns, take action and address governments on their commitment to deliver effective strategies to tackle HIV and AIDS. £250 can connect 1 school in the Developing World
