Thanks to Trayport for their continued support of the Children’s Centre. The staff team collected various  craft items , table tennis equipment , books and DVD’s before Christmas to enhance the activities offered to the children.

The Busega Boogie Band did Busega Scotland proud in our first fund raising event of 2015. The band, consisting of the Red Blues plus guests, played and sang ‘Americana’ – blues, bluegrass and 50’s rock and roll. An amazing total of 64 tickets were sold and the small and intimate venue at the Drouthy Cobbler made the perfect setting, as the band and audience became as one in playing, singing and tapping the night away.

There were clear calls at the end of the evening for more boogie nights and the band are committed to the work of Busega Scotland and in playing for us again. We thank them, the helpers and audience who together made the event such a great success. On the financial side a tremendous total of £456 was raised for the construction project at the Mayega Orphanage.

Thank you to the scouts, their leaders and their families for their fundraising efforts. They presented a cheque for £500 to Christine during their Christmas party.  BCDSA Tanzania. will use the money to  expand the solar power system at the New Peace Mayega Children’s Dropping  Centre. The money will purchase  a solar panel for the new building, currently under construction. We hope this will be up and running early in March.

Don’t miss out on January’s big event. The Busega Boogie band will be playing at the Drouthie Cobbler, Elgin on 17th January. Tickets will be in great demand at only £5 per person. Forget the January blues by enjoying Blue Grass and 50’s Rock and Roll music.

A very big thank you to the Drouthy Cobbler staff and everyone who came along to the quiz night . £547 was raised for work at the Mayega Orphanage. Thanks to our question master and scorers for keeping us in order!
