Help needed with AIC tasks

There is a need for someone who could help with some practical jobs to help us to send out our newsletter twice a year. This will specially involve printing labels and sending out the email copies. In case this work is new to you, AIC (Anglo-Indian Concern) is a small charity which shows God's love and gives practical help to disadvantaged Anglo-Indian families in Chennai, South India. If you might be interested, please see or ring Rachel Thurley (01480 454736).
