Revive make special delivery to Africa

July 6th, 2010


Revive support a charity called Edukaid by giving them free office space and also help with administration costs and fund raising events. Edukaid aims to improve the provision and quality of education in the developing world. Their work is currently centered in Tanzania and in June this year, Revives MD Tim Varney or “Mr Tim” as he is known in Tanzania, made a special trip to see for himself how the money raised was being spent. Not only did he get the chance to talk to teachers, school children and all of Edukaids Tanzanian staff but he also supervised the delivery of desks and chairs to a science class at Singino Primary school.

Mr Tim said “watching the children dressed in their school uniforms, carry the desks and chairs up the long steep hill will stay in my mind for ever. The fact that they were all smiling, happy and excited to be receiving this basic equipment brought home to me how just a small donation from the UK can transform the lives of children in a place like Tanzania”.

Revive Director to run ten x 10K runs in 10 months to raise £10,000 for EdUKaid

November 24th, 2009

A message from the Director of Revive….

I know what you are thinking? How is Tim Varney going to haul his 17 ½ stone frame around one 10K run let alone ten? Well, it’s a very good question but I needed to set a target that would challenge me enough to inspire my friends to part with some cash or even join in and race with me. So pictured left is me with my new personal trainer Keo.  Keo is the family’s newest addition and like all Labradoodle’s he has got loads of energy.

October 2nd, 2009

When we say banking we don’t mean the large financial institutions, we mean the banking we put around our vending machines that advertise our chosen charity EdUKaid. Let’s be honest, vending machines are not the most attractive metal boxes to have stood in any building. However, when they are banked together like this their appearance and appeal is completely transformed.
