Hi Guys,
now i know i dont really know any of you on here and its a bit cheeky to ask but please could spare a few moments to look at this Link, http://www.aid4aidsorphans.org/, we are trying to make a real difference to the lives of these people, by restoring the orphange, if you can scrape the bottom of your pockets and donate anything you can, it would help us so much, All Donations go towards building cost.Thanks for all your support guys.
to donate... go here - http://www.justgiving.com/aid4aidsorphans
Sorry to ask on here but we're trying to raise as much money as possible.
Thanks

Looks like a scam to be honest. The website needs developing so the pages are different and it actually looks like a genuine charity. No mention of a charity number on the webpage either and the donate page is to a different charity.

Good on you for doing something like that, must be quite rewarding actually being the ones restoring the place rather than just hearing about it.

Justgiving is one of the largest charity donation sites in the world. Only registered charities with numbers can apply for a page.

Facebook, stick it on yours and get it on all your mates. Stick posters in local supermarkets too.

got it on facebook already, its not long till we go now, so im just literally trying to raise a few extra quid. it really does make a difference, i was out in Kenya, in a tiny village called Wamba, we built them a couple of water tanks and helped fund a few of the girls through secondary school out there. its really rewarding. and if anyone is concerned we have all paid our own travel, accomodation and other expense out of our own pocket so all donations fo directly towards building materials and the running of the orphanage after we leave.
