On the 1st December 2015 an incredible thing happened. A school block was opened in Malawi that will educate two hundred children.
Those two hundred children now have a safe place to learn who were previously taught outside in the dust under the hot sun. The school block was funded through Rudimental’s support for Love Specs and Love Support Unite Foundation.
The Story: The Rudimental school block is now open.
Love Specs are heart-shaped love-tinted diffraction glasses that turn points of light into fractal rainbow hearts! UK drum and bass heroes Rudimental first discovered Love Specs at Bestival 2014 when introduced to them by a friend. When Piers, Amir, Kesi and Locksmith heard the story behind Love Specs and discovered that 100% of the profits got to Love Support Unite’s community focussed sustainable development projects in Malawi, they fell in love and ordered personalised Rudimental Love Specs for their merchandise stands.
Earlier this year Amir, Kesi and Piers starred in an exclusive campaign for Love Specs shot by Zoe Lower. Their energy is palpable in this epic collection of images that are available from our Press Zone (http://lovesupportunite.org/presszone).
Last summer Rudimental decided to join us in fighting extreme poverty in Malawi. They gave away over 10,000 pairs of paper Love Specs to their fans at the inaugural Wild Life festival in Brighton, raising £8,000 to build a school block at Mkhunku School. The Rudimental school block will allow an additional two hundred children to learn in safety. Those two hundred children who were previously taught outside in the dust under the hot sun. The Rudimental school block is the third block at Mkhunku School and will enable the local community to educate a total of eight hundred children from extremely poor backgrounds. Rudimental’s generosity has blown the Mkhunku community and us away. They have changed lives forever.
The Rudimental school block was opened on Tuesday 1st December 2015. Join us in sharing this incredible story of Christmas generosity and love.
Piers Aggett from Rudimental says, “We Support Love Support Unite because they are an honest charity who work from the grassroots up. They help build schools and provide energy and resources in a place like Malawi where they are needed most”.
