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.

Join Me Pencils

A big thank you to my friend Zena Johnson, who has been selling personalised Join Me pencils and giving the money to the Hoja Project. She raised £204 at the last (and I believe final) count, and a whole bunch of Gift Aid declarations landed on my doormat this morning, so we'll be raising a bit more in Income Tax donations too.

In other news you'll notice that I have been adding pictures to make the website a bit more appealing. Hopefully that will be a sustained effort. So far all of the pictures have come from a visit to Mpandangindo in October by Paul Temple. Paul is from the more experienced Luhimba Project, which is a charity helping Luhimba village, near to Mpandangindo.
