We raise(筹集) money by ourselves. Some people give away money to us because they like what we do. We also hold many events(公开活动) such as concerts and sales to raise money. Naima once helped us raise money. She talked about how the Trust helped change her life. To go on helping people like Naima, we need to raise more money.
How can you help?
Please help by organizing(组织) a money-raising event in your college or in your neighborhood.
