Just set up a Virgin Money Giving page: http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/PennyHaywoodCalder for donations to Practical Action - my inspiration for this 5x50 2013 challenge.
Practical Action uses technology to challenge poverty in developing countries. They say:
"Our strength is our approach. We find out what people are doing and help them to do it better. Through technology we enable poor communities to build on their skills and knowledge to produce sustainable and practical solutions - transforming their lives forever and protecting the world around them."
Founded by the economist Fritz Schumacher (who wrote the seminal book, Small is Beautiful) over 40 years ago, Practical Action each year help around a million people break out of the cycle of poverty ... for good.
