MAGNIFICENT MADAGASCAR


The Money for Madagascar 2014 Calendar is now on sale! This is a perfect present to delight you and your friends throughout the new year. 



As Autumn blusters into Winter and you are down to the last pages of your 2013 calendar fear not! Money for Madagascar has a vivid new calendar lined up to brighten your wall with sunshine and smiles through the new year ahead.

Thank you to everyone who bought the Malagasy birdlife calendar last year which raised £1000 for our much needed work with the most vulnerable people of Madagascar.

The 2014  calendar features stunning photos of Malagasy people and places donated by the photographer and author Kris Pierscieniak. We met him this year at the Andasibe National Park, in the eastern rainforests, our necks stretching skywards to catch glimpses and photos of elusive lemurs. He was interested in MfM’s work and offered to share his photos with our supporters. Kris has included a very personal commentary on his photos. In his preface he writes:

‘The real story of Madagascar is the story of her people. It’s the story of their zest for life, their sense of humour, their hand-to-mouth survival in spite of all the odds. It’s exactly they, the people, who make the spirit and soul of Madagascar real.  Through my photography, I invite you to look into their world. The Big Red island of Madagascar is a place like no other...’

We hope the beautiful photos, coupled with the vignettes of MfM's work will give you a taste of the magic of Madagascar. 

All calendar sales will help MfM to fund low-cost, low-technology and community-led projects which can make a real difference to improving people’s lives and protecting Madagascar’s unique bio-diversity. 

To order your calendar please follow the link to the shop on the MfM website  http://moneyformadagascar.org/english/shop.asp  or post your order to the address on the flier above. Beautiful Christmas cards and alternative gifts are also available in the MfM on-line shop. Thank you for your support this Christmas.
