The Blues n Rock Garden Party was once again a huge success, with over £4,000 raised by the event for projects in Malawi. Despite torrential rainfall, revellers danced to the stunning musical acts, and continued to tuck into fabulous foods with gusto – even the power cuts didn’t stop the festival style fun at the gorgeous garden venue. BFiM aims to raise £10,000 a year, so a big thank you goes out to everyone who attended, bought a raffle ticket and of course volunteered to take part in our annual event.

Revellers Love The Rain for BFiM

Monday, May 16th, 2011
We’d like to take the opportunity to thank all of you who have supported, and continue to support Building Futures in Malawi by purchasing charity gifts, making donations and signing up for charity work in Africa. The success of the website has meant that we have just received a £500 donation, been contacted by 7 volunteers, have 50 footballs and 5 boxes of sports kit; and someone has contacted us who may potentially be donating a library! This is great news indeed, and it really does help build the futures of those in Malawi! Please keep up the wonderful support and check back to find out what else is going on with our latest project – The Lingadzi Academy in the next blog post.
BFIM Blues and Rock in the Garden Party 2010
Friday, July 9th, 2010
The annual shindig to raise money for Building Futures In Malawi projects is to take place on Saturday 10th July, and with temperatures predicted to be the hottest of the year, it is guaranteed to be a blazing success. The Blues and Rock in the Garden party will be supplying fabulous food, delicious drinks at a licensed bar and some of the best entertainment Colchester has to offer. The musical line-up includes the Jazmine Ava Band, Audio Pirates, Jake Morely and Martin Newell, and all the proceeds raised will be divided between BFIM, Anti Slavery International and Medecins Sans Frontieres Sierra Leone Appeal. The event has been an annual success attracting throngs of happy revellers and willing volunteers in the preceding years. To enjoy a slice of the action at this year’s event buy tickets through BFIM’s Just Giving Blues and Rock 2010 page, where you can also donate if you can’t make this year’s party.
