The Hoja Project was set up as a UK registered charity in 2005 and since 2013 has now run under the charity registration of COCO (Comrades Of Children Overseas). COCO has supported Hoja since the very early days, so this represents no real change in the day-to-day operation of Hoja.

COCO's webpage on Hoja can be found here, and they regularly produce news on all their projects. This blog is updated on a volunteer basis, so new posts tend to be every few months.

African Night raises £300

Well done to our very own Julia, who held a fundraising event last night at Durham University.
Just to say the African evening last night was fantastic and raised £300 for Hoja :)

There was Cameroonian storytelling, African board games (eg mancala, bantumi etc), Egyptian belly dancing, food, bongo flava, film, Phil's Tz slides (thanks!) and lots and lots of DRUMMING!!! It was held in the upstairs of a bar and we covered it in kanga and kitenge decorations and candles.
Excellent.
