Plop-Stiubei in winter
project 2019
As introduced last month, a team of volunteers will be travelling to the village of Plop-Stiubei to create a bathroom for the boys and one for the girls in the senior school (ages 9yrs+), providing them, for the first time, with indoor flushing toilets.
The team are gathering clothing together for the free shop, which will be set up in the village. Good quality clothing is required and if you are gathering/spreading the word for us and asking friends, colleagues etc to have a wardrobe sort out, then don’t forget the men and children (lots of women’s clothes are always received).
We would like to thank Choice Clothing Ltd, Suffolk for donating excellent quality clothing, which has been a good boost to stock.
Other items to consider supporting TEECH with are:
The charity is aiming to improve its stock of tools (having used the same ones for many years and also relied upon the kindness of volunteers to bring their own).

thank you - Merchiston Castle School
A young gentleman from Moldova, who joined TEECH in the summer of 2017, is now studying at Merchiston Castle School in Edinburgh. Daniel was connected to TEECH through the US Peace Corp, who met and encouraged him and a friend to volunteer with a charity, of the country in which he would then go onto study in. He has gone on to raise funds for TEECH will fellow students.
Daniel provided the following message with the donation:
I heard about TEECH in the summer of 2017. A friend of mine who is Peace Corp Volunteer in Moldova knew that I was going to study in UK, so he invited me to join this project in order to meet the British people, get used to the accent and ask more about the life in UK. Me and my friend gladly accepted the invitation and joined the group for 3 days. We were working hard during the day and then having really good chat in the evenings.
This gave us the opportunity to help refurbishing a school in a local region as well as getting to know wonderful people from UK and Sweden.
When asked for a charity in school this is the only one I could have thought of. I am glad we could make a contribution, as these people do actually make a change in Moldova. A change that we need.
Thanks goes to Daniel and fellow students at the school for fundraising for TEECH.
