The Team Refuge

Team Refuge: Winners of The Polar Race 2007 Jake and James took part and won this year's race to the Magnetic North Pole (www.polarrace.com/2007),
not just for the adventure of walking 400 miles across the Canadian Arctic, but to raise £250,000 in order to establish a new trust fund to cover
the life-saving medical evacuation of refugee children.
For example, a child with acute appendicitis need not die pointlessly in a refugee camp simply because the funds do not exist to help. Instead aid agencies will be able to access the trust fund and avoid yet another pointless death.
This painting - Afghan Child Refugees (Girl holding brother) by Susan Morland - is one of the unique lots for auction at our next fund-raising event on October 6th. For more information please contact Jake by email at jake@teamrefuge.org or 07841 286 776.
