## A Little Gesture A Great Help (ALG) Aboutus ALG is a non-profit organization recognized by the Charity Commission for England and Wales since 2011. In 2022, ALG reached 3 237 direct beneficiaries in the province of Gaza, . Mozambique, in its joint operation with sister charity UPG Portugal[1] ## Vision Break the cycle of poverty in Mozambique ## Misson Promote the improvement of the living conditions of every child in the needy communities in southern Mozambique. 1. UPG is a non-profit Association legally recognized as a Non-Governmental Organization for Development (NGDO) by the Portuguese Ministry of Foreign Affairs since 2008, and by the Mozambican Ministry of Foreign Affairssince 2010. ALG is registered with the UK Charity Commission since 2011 4 alittlegesture.org ## Letter from the Chairman What a year 2022 has been, yet again full of surprises but never without hope. Yet again we took steps well out of our depth and are overwhelmed with emotion of the impact we had on the lives of the children. Yet again we dedicated heart and soul (and many many hours) to the little (and not so little ones) in Mozambique. With a mission so difficult, the end is not always near. We are working every day to tool each child and family to break the cycle of poverty. Through education and nutrition, we believe this will be possible one family at a time. With this long end in sight, we spend a lot of time thinking about what else we can do, and too little thinking about the lives that are already being changed every day. Changing lives is precisely at the centre of our actions. And for that, we have also changed ourselves, grown as a team, pushed ourselves further. We launched one of our largest projects feeding 1500 children 3x a week. We lost a bit of sleep on it, but here is the outcome: - 120 thousand meals provided at São Vicente School - School absenteeism went from 11% to 2% in only 1 year - 150 thousand meals provided at Santa Luisa Marillac school – The list on as I each after-school uni HIV goes go through program support, pre-schools, scholarships, center, housing. I won’t get stuck on numbers. Through our 18-year history, we focused on one story at a time. But the bigger picture reminds us of the large number if lives we are changing. Stories are behind every single number, and with your help, we will have many more to bring in 2023.

This reinforces self-confidence, reduces gender inequality, and encourages women and girls to stand up for themselves and fight for their rights. The more empowered they are, the greater their power and control over their own lives. During her journey with UPG, Almira has taken part in various training programmes and activities for female empowerment. Today, she acts as a mentor to the to continue the chain of and the younger girls, seeking empowerment support Kyrie Petrakis young women in training. ## Almira Former UPG Sponsored Child, Former Local Technician, Former University Scholarship Student Almira is 21 years old and has been with UPG/ALG since she was 10 years old, in the Sponsorship program at the Santa Luísa de Marillac school in Manjangue, when she started attending 5th grade. With a lot of affection for children, her childhood dream was to become a teacher. With ALG’s support, Almira participated in various technical professional courses, such as Culinary Arts (2016) and Sewing and Tailoring (2018). In 2021, she completed the 12th grade and enrolled in the Chicuque Teachers Training Center in Inhambane, but unfortunately, she couldn't continue the course. However, in 2022, her motivation and proactivity made her a monitor in our Study Support project at Santa Luísa de Marillac. In this activity, Almira took her first professional steps and realized that her true passion was to support and help people. At the end of the year, Almira was admitted to a university scholarship and is currently studying General Nursing. 8 alittlegesture.org ## ALG IN NUMBERS ## ALG BENEFICIARIES Total ALG beneficiaries Net number of beneficiaries Touchpoints **----- Start of picture text -----**

Cash at year end 2021 of £224’090 remained comfortably above funds both raised and disbursed. - The Trustees keep a close focus on the cost-to-income ratio, targeted at under 10%. In 2022, this was very comfortably achieved with Admin Costs at 2.1% of funds raised and at 3.3% of funds applied over the year. 18 alittlegesture.org ## Funds Financial Review ALG dedicates its charitable activities to i) the advancement of education, ii) the relief of poverty and iii) the advancement of health and prevention of disease.
