Want to fundraise for the MAD Foundation, and visit the communities your hard work has helped? Then why not get involved with some fundraising for our overseas volunteer projects

Teen Queen Group Ghana 2011

In November 2011 the winners of "Teen Queen UK," along with ambassadors Liam McGough, Elen Rivas and Polly Parsons, came to Ghana to see the village of Lume Ge which their fundraising has helped this year.

Teen Queen Group Ghana 2010

In November 2010 Beauty Pageant winners of “Teen Queen UK” came out to Ghana with MAD to see where all the money they had raised was being spent. They arrived just in time for the famous Nordu Festival and the village of Shia, which was where MAD did it's first project back in 1998.

The Teen Queen volunteers spent several days painting the school buildings, the new technical block which MAD volunteers built in the summer, and getting everything in tip top condition ready to show 3000 guests at the festival from surrounding villages. The girls worked really hard and really got stuck into their project. They became very popular in the village especially with all the kids that were very excited to get to know them. They also had the opportunity to visit Wli, the biggest waterfall in West Africa, visit several villages where MAD has been working and meet the village chiefs. Leyla Hussain, one of the winners of the Charity Princess title managed to raise the most money towards the MAD Foundation, a huge £2,547.98 and between the girls a total of £18,730.00 was raised for the MAD Foundation registered charity!  Amazing work well done girls!

Big Brother Football and Kilimanjaro

After Anthony Hutton won Big Brother back in 2006 and Liam and Ziggy came close in 2007 they all wanted to give something back and what better way than to become ambassadors for The Mad Foundation Charity!

They have all done their fair share of helping out the charity and it all started back in 2009 when Anthony and Liam went over the Kenya to coach football. They spent ten days in the Rift Valley helping build a school in one of the villages Madventurer has been working in for a few years now. Whilst not busy digging and cementing bricks they organised football tournaments, played several matches and got to know all the local football teams!

In 2010 Ziggy and Liam climbed Kilimanjaro with the Mad Chief and several other energetic volunteers. This is something Ziggy described as “a life changing experience.”

Later on in the year Liam made a trip out to Ghana with other fellow fundraisers; Teen Queen UK contestants! The week was spent painting the schools in Shia and making any final touches ready for the famous Nordu Festival! Shia is the village where Mad started back in 1998 and where they would be the honorary guests to say thank you for all their hard work over the last 12 years.

Liam says “I'm now a Patron on the Mad Foundation after being blown away by the work that Mad gets up to around the world so keep the sponsorship coming in as its going to a great cause.”
