All donations welcome.  Thank you for helping such a wonderful cause.

SAFC NASA's Honorary Life President, Ritchie Pitt, attended our association's inaugural AGM (New York), spreading great news about a charity that he and [massive Sunderland fan, and former Olympian] Steve Cram have been raising money for. 

COCO International works with communities in remote overseas regions to alleviate the poverty preventing children’s education. COCO stands for Comrades of Children Overseas, a name taken from the famous Comrades Marathon in South Africa which both our Co-Founders (Steve Cram MBE and Jim Panton) ran back in 1999. They both realized the impact fundraising could have on the lives of people blighted by poverty and believed that education provided the answer to overcoming poverty. From here COCO was born.

COCO is the only charity recognized by SAFC NASA.  All monies raised through auctions and raffles being presented to them.
