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:
  • paint brushes, paint (all colours: full tins), rollers
  • woodwork clamps
  • Set of chisels
  • Wood Saw
  • Drill bits: wood and masonry
  • Spirit levels
  • Cordless screw drivers
 
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 - Billericay mayflower

TEECH expresses thanks to the Rotary Club of Billericay Mayflower for a donation of £800 towards the summer project. TEECH were welcomed in February at their weekly meeting, to explain the work of the charity and share pictures from last years project. The funding will go towards purchasing the sanitary ware (toilets/sinks) for the new bathrooms.

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.

Reminder

MyDonate is closing! At the end of June the donation platform provided by BT is to close, therefore TEECH are in the process of setting up an alternative. Please continue to use MyDonate until further notice. 

future requests

Thinking ahead to future years, toilet cubicle dividers are now needed. For a few years TEECH have managed with a stock of dividers purchased from a night club and also some acquired free, but now more are required for 2020. It is proved to be one of the hardest items to source, therefore we will be spreading the word early. Generally, a row of 4/5 would be required for a girl’s bathroom and 2/3 for a boy’s bathroom.
