The Suzy Fund is a
Registered Charity Number 283229
The Suzy Fund began in 1975. The girl
in this photograph died on a rubbish dump in Ethiopia, minutes after
it was taken. When the parishioners of St Peter and Paul Parish in
Wakefield West Yorkshire saw this image they named the girl Suzy,
and under the leadership of Brian Hazel, a parishioner, they have
now raised £400,000 for third world projects. As little as 10p
can give a child a hot meal, these children are lucky to have three
meals in a week.
The Suzy Fund is run entirely by volunteers and overheads are kept
to an absolute minimum.
A Parishioner is a member of The
Healys Folk Band. Since 2001 they have raised over £16,000
to aid the feeding stations in Ethiopia by selling CDs and through
various donations. If you too would like to help The Suzy Fund, please
