Holy Trinity (Hazlemere) Junior Football Club in the UK has teams playing throughout the season at every age level from 8 through to 16 years. At their home matches they sell hot and cold drinks to the spectators with the aim of raising money, not for themselves, but for others. In 2004 they gave £500 for the purchase of ploughing bulls. This year the young people wanted the help to go directly to helping the orphans of Kenya. So, on Saturday 28th May 2005, a cheque for £500 was presented to Hazlemere JAM, the widows and orphans project of Amani UK. It will be used to develop the JAM nursery school programme where the homes of deceased people are converted into nurseries run by the widows groups for young orphans.
