**Trustees Annual Report 2024/2025** prepared by MA Fletcher and agreed by K McCartney K Pink and E Tooth 

The Kinamba Community Project charity is registered as an International Non - Government Organisation no 145/RGB/18 

The **school** – the school programme consists of three sections:  Primary Secondary and Tertiary. 

From April 2024 we are supporting 57 students in local primary schools. All Primary students are in state school all day and they attend homework club in the evenings and on Saturday. 

In addition, we are supporting 112 students at secondary level and 27 at tertiary level. 

## The **building** – No major issues with the building. 

Our **staf –** The staff structure is as follows - In-country director and assistant director plus teachers of dance, rugby and music, two cleaners, three guards and a cook. 

Our **pupils** - mostly live locally and are generally from the poorest families of the area. The areas where the children live are gradually changing as the Kigali master plan rolls out. More children are moving out of the centre as large areas have been cleared for development, and some children walk for up to an hour to get to the project. 

Our **feeding programme** – Thanks to individual and group donations for the food programme we continue to provide nutritious meals with dried fish, soya and vegetables added to the beans. 

Our **Expenditure** in Rwanda for the year 2024/2025 was approximately £130,000, reaching an accurate total is made difficult by the rapidly changing exchange rates during the year as the Rwandan franc has lost value– see the summary below. 

## **Volunteers** - 

There have been no long-term volunteers at the project this year. 

- **Fundraising** our individual sponsorship programme is a very important source of income and is gradually increasing from supporters who commit to regular donations on a longer-term basis. 

All the KCP children attending primary and secondary schools have sponsors with the exception of one in Primary. 

We continue to need to organise events in the UK. These include coffee mornings and many individual supporters fundraising, for example for birthdays and other sponsored events. I give talks at schools and local groups, for example Rotary clubs, WI and church groups. We have a fundraising group in the USA and in Holland 

**Development Plan** The Primary section is now reducing and the focus is changing to the secondary and tertiary levels 

**Adult programme –** A new Literacy programme offered free of charge was reinstated for local residents.
