Children in Ireland asked to support vulnerable youngsters by hosting tea party
Children throughout Ireland are being asked to support vulnerable young people around the world by hosting a tea party in their final weeks of school. The new initiative is marking 15 years of the charity Team Hope, which works to transform children's lives by tackling poverty and inequality in African and eastern European countries. Best known for its Christmas Shoebox Appeal, the not-for-profit organisation has revealed that people in Ireland have donated €2 million in life-changing aid since 2010. The Team Hope Tea Party has a €240,000 target to fund vital projects such as clean water, education and income-generation opportunities in countries including Kenya, Burundi, Malawi, and Rwanda, where many live on less than two US dollars a day. The campaign, running from June 14-22, is not confined to schools. Sports clubs, businesses and individuals across the country are all invited to take part. Team Hope chief executive Deborah Lowry said: "Over the past 15 years, we've not only delivered millions of Christmas Shoebox gifts but have also helped provide access to clean water, healthcare and support for communities that need it most. "In June, we'd love if people can think beyond the box and host a tea party to help raise vital funds to support that work. "In the five years to the end of this year, we will have improved the lives of 10,000 children in our sustainable development projects. "The locally-based water projects in Kenya not only provide clean water to communities but also mean that girls, who previously spent hours collecting water every day, can go to school. There are multiple layers to the improvements our work makes to people's lives." Some of Team Hope's other projects include the creation of pineapple farms in Rwanda, an income generator allowing parents to support their families and send their children to school. "We know that we are impacting hundreds of people in their own communities and thousands of children as a result of this work," Ms Lowry said. "While the shoebox appeal opens the door so we can help the poorest communities create their own future, we want to tell a different story; that these children are well loved, that they are full of hope. We are only the little seeds that helps them build a better future."

The Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers for May 27 Episode: Carter Proposes, Hope's Decision Looms in Air
Drama will intensify and allegiances change in The Bold and the Beautiful's May 27 episode, when life-changing choices and confounding actions leave characters and fans in shock. Carter sits patiently for a response after taking a risk: proposing to Hope. Overwhelmed by the impromptu gesture, Hope is torn between making a choice. Although she couldn't provide Thomas Forrester with the level of commitment that he sought, new information could send her down a different path. Hope was rocked by Liam Spencer's news of being terminal, a cruel reminder of the fragility of life. With feelings at an all-time high, she might tell Carter "yes" to put Liam at ease, knowing she'll be fine without him. Though it might be a flight of emotions to comfort him, her answer could bring Carter unanticipated happiness… even if it's based on doubt. At the same time, Liam has a heartfelt talk with Finn. Realizing time is running out with his daughters, Liam requests Finn to take on a fatherly role for Kelly and Beth when the need arises. Finn is moved by the appeal and vows to keep Liam's request in mind. The tearful conversation will have the two men talking about fatherhood, legacy, and the painful journey that lies ahead. Meanwhile, Steffy voices her excitement over Hope's potential romance with Carter and commends her return to the company. Brooke and Ridge, however, are suspicious of her last-minute change of heart. Steffy's conversion to "Team Hope" seems too easy, and they can't help but ask themselves what they're not seeing. Unbeknownst to them, Steffy already knows Liam's terminal prognosis, an emotional bombshell whose explanation for her strange behavior could be revealed shortly. The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers hint at further emotional fallout in the coming weeks.
