Margaret has raised over \u00a32800 for WaterAid in the last three years. Collecting unwanted and broken jewellery and household items, Margaret has converted friend’s, family’s and member’s\u00a0trash into cash. It costs the donors nothing! <\/strong><\/p>\n

Did you know 4000 children die every day because they don’t have safe water to drink or access to a proper toilet??? <\/strong>Just \u00a315 helps one person access safe water, improved hygiene and sanitation<\/strong><\/p>\n
