who are teech
TEECH was established in 1998 when a group of people who worked (at that time) together at BT near Ipswich, Suffolk took up the challenge from a colleague to help repair two hospitals in Bucharest.
About fifty volunteers travelled to Bucharest under the banner of ‘BTL Aid to Romania’ in August that year and set about painting, plastering, providing lighting and generally making the hospitals cleaner, safer and brighter places. After the success of this trip, and seeing the need to be more structured the volunteers organised themselves into a Registered Charity and hence TEECH (Telecoms Eastern European Challenge) was born.
TEECH is a small independent charity, run by an unpaid team of volunteers, with no links to BT.

Project 2020 Fundraiser
TEECH have now finished fundraising to enable a bathroom project to be carried out in the village of Baccealia, Moldova.
The school in the village had no indoor toilets, therefore TEECH supporters/donators raised enough to fund local labourer and supplies, to enable a bathroom for the boys and one for the girls to be created. Hygiene and privacy are really important for the pupils and teachers under normal circumstances, but even more so now with the pandemic situation.

our aim
Our vision is to improve the lives of those in Eastern Europe, who by no fault of their own are living in conditions not seen in Western Europe since before the war.
TEECH aim to improve their lives by installing sanitary ware into schools, orphanages and elderly residences where no indoor toilets exist. The charity also delivers aid, including clothing, toys and shoes to the local communities.
