Burkina Faso is now celebrating 50 years of independance.
APT is asking people to do "Faso Five-O Fundraisers" to try and raise £50,000 to help us bring God's blessing to Burkina Faso.
Half of all money raised will go towards the building of the Gorom-Gorom primary school, and the rest will be used where most needed for APT's other work of poverty relief, community development, church planting etc
