Castlehill Housing Association - Bolivia Challenge
A sponsored Cycling and Rowing
event carried out by staff and friends of Castlehill Housing
Association, raised a grand total of £2,852.21 for
charity Orkney Helping Hands (OHH). Pictured above is Barbara
McVean, OHH Secretary, being presented with the cheque by David
Lappin, Director of Housing Services, and staff at Castlehill’s
office in Aberdeen.
The Challenge took place during the
months January to May 2008 and saw a team of 16 cover over 7,000
miles of land and water, from Aberdeen to Bolivia (not literally
– they used rowing machines and static/road bikes!).
The OHH project that Castlehill
decided to donate to is a Children’s Home in Sacaba, a poor area
outside Cochabamba, South America. They paid for furnishing the
home. There was even money left over to pay for a Food Cart for
another children’s home.
OHH is a Registered Scottish
Charity SC03666 whose aim is to further the health, well-being
and protection of children and their families in Latin America.
See their website at
www.orkneycommunities.co.uk/OHH.
Castlehill Housing Association chose them as the benefiting
charity for money raised because the work OHH carry out relates
closely to housing and they were impressed by the direct action
being taken by the charity.
Barbara Ann McVean, originally from
Orkney, lives and works in Cochabamba, South America. She works
voluntarily for OHH and locates projects locally and oversees
them, ensuring the money donated is being spent properly.
Jim McVean, Barbara Ann’s dad, also
took part in the Castlehill Bolivia Challenge. He has decided
to cycle the return trip (from Bolivia to Orkney) on his own!
He has started his own challenge Jim’s Sole Trip Home,
and he is well underway having cycled over 2,000 miles since the
end of the Castlehill challenge. Jim will be writing to
businesses in Orkney and Aberdeen for sponsorship.
