Donations

Hlekweni operates an account denominated in pounds sterling at Barclays Bank, Francistown, Botswana, for donors and well-wishers who want to send us money from abroad. Funds are also held in the UK by Milton Keynes Quaker Meeting.

The Swift code, sometimes needed when transferring money, is BARCBWGX. When international payments are made, the phrase ‘foreign currency account’ should be included in the payment instructions.

Please advise us by post fax phone or email of the exact amount transferred and the intended purpose. Hlekweni is very grateful for all contributions, large or small and will send official receipts once the payment has appeared on the bank statements.

Donations in kind and in time are also very welcome.
