In December 2024, nine volunteers and Global Care's Head of Operations visited our
programme in Rukungiri, Uganda. During the trip, the team ran four children's activity
days and visited the hornes of sponsored children.
The trip gave volunteers the opportunity to better
unclerstand the needs of vulnerable children living

Global Care, meet local staff, and personally
wilness the impact of their giving and
ndraising. The team received appropriate
training and support. As a direcl result of their
trip, volunteers sponsoTed six new chlldre
Volunteers shared their experiences through
presentatsons to fatnily, fn'ends, churches and work
colleagues.
The publlc benefit of this activity is lo promote the voluntary sector by supporting volunteering and
community involvernenl of individuals, providing opportunity for individuals lo volunteer, and
raising awareness of the needs of vulnerable and disadvantaged communities.
38 people from across the UK took part in our
annual'50 miles in 30 days, wall(ing challenge in
January 2025 and raised £6,350 towards the costs
of providing essential nutrition for vulnerable
children with HIVIAIDS at the Kadella centre
in Sri Lanka.

In the UK a team of volunteers worked alongside shop
tnanagers at Global Care's two charity shops in the Coventry and Warwickshire area. Volunteers
sorted stock, supported sales, and chatted to customers, raising funds for our overseas prograrnmes,
and prornoting our work. Volunteers also worked alongside our UK office tearns helping with
general administrative tasks, finance, marketing, cornmunications, and IT. Volunteers in all roles
receive apprDpriate training for their role and in working in the charity sector.
The pUb￿.C benefit of these activities is to promole, encourage and support volllnteer￿ and
community involvemenl by individuals by providing opportunities to volunteer and training for
volunleers.
We raised awareness of the needs of marginalised people and communities, through a
wide range of cornmunications to supporters induding newsletters, project updates and
multimedia resources.
Through social media and speakn'ng engagements to groups
including churches and community groups, we raised
awareness to the wider public. We delivered donor
prograrnmes which equip people to rnake a difference
for vulnerable children through sponsorship or by
becoming a Global Care'change Maker.
The public benefit of these activities is lo raise
awareness of the needs of poor. sick, distressed,

provides 450 chlldren with appropriate care,
quality education, and h'fe and work sk]lls.

office, and two pil latrines on the school
compound. Through our Harvest Appeal, we

In Ethiopia, we supponed 150 women lo work

towards economic stability through 10 self-help
groups in the district of Koshe. Children of these
mothers now go lo school as families can afford
educational tnalerials, food and clothes.
The public benefit of these activities is to PTovide
vulnerable children with health, welfare, and
educational support, to promote equity of access
to education and to provide safety and security for
chil(tren in dangerous situations.
We continued to provide support for children
with disabilities in Soroti, Uganda, through the
Disability Support Officer (DCO).
Each quarter, the DCO travelled throughout the
area providing individual assessttLent and then
appropriate supporl foi 35 isolated children wilh
disabllity and their families, and helping chlldren
and famthes access local service providers. The DCO
advocates for disabled children, working to end
their isolation, neglect and th'scriminallon. Wherever
possible, the DCO supported children lo access local
government schools.
In STI Lanka, we supported the Kadella Centre, in
Colombo, which provides support and advocacy for
chlldren affected direcdy or indirectly by HIVIAIDS.
The Kadella Centre ensures these children continue
to receive education, monitors their horne lives,
and addresses nutritional and medical needs. The
team also seeks 10 create an environment free from
discrimination and siigma for chddren with HIV.
We enabled the provision of extra nutrition for 26
children who are HIV+ ident]fied by our partners as
being particularly vulnerable.
The public benefit of these activiiies is to provide
relief for children in need because of disability and
health, and to make farnllies better aware of theiT
rights, responsthilities, and services available. This
in turn supports children's educatson, independence,
and well-being.
ln Bangladesh our partners support 20
Education Nurturing Centres (Learning Booster
Centres) which provide educational support for
300 children in margina]ised communities, and
train rnothers in incOm￿generating activities.
40 older students receive appropriate training and
support, and act as Mentors lo younger chlldren. They
receive a small stipend and fees for exarninations,
enabling them to continue their studies without
neethng to seek work. 195 mothers connected to the
centres received dllCk￿ngs or vegetable seeds, and
training on poultry farming and vegetable cultivation,
to support income generallon for the famlly.
The pUb￿.C benefit of these activiues is to ensure
children can access equilable quality educalion and
provide relief of those in need by reason cif poverty.
We continue to provide skills training for
teenage girls in Soroti, Uganda, and to
support Girls, clubs at four primary schools in
Rukungiri, Uganda.
Girls Clubs provide a safe space where, through
mentormg and peer support, 419 girls coujd have
open, clear conversations and teaching on sex
and sexudity and otheT relevant topics. In rural
Malawi, we continue to SUPPOTt a termly mentoring
pragramrne for secondary aged girls through our
partnership with Muthange Community-Based
Organisation ICBOI.
The public benefit of these activities is to bring relief
to girls in need by reason of povety, discTitnination,
mallrealment, youth, ￿ health, disabth'iy or other
disadvantage. These activities also provide vulnerable
girls with health, welfare, and educational support,
and provide safety and security for gir15 in dangerous
situations.

We work with vu]nerable children
regardless of their own faith or ethnicity,
seeking justice for all children, because we
believe every child is unique and precious
in the eyes of God. We aim to express
and share the love of God through our
actions, dependent on God's faithfulness,
recognÉsing that He will provide the
resources for this work.
Our'CARES' rnnemonic describes our
values- Chrisl-centred, Authenuc, Relational,
Enterprising, Serving. All staff and volunteeTS
are made aware of oui CARES values, and
we Tegularly discuss CARES values as part of

occasional prayer days which are open lo all.
We promote a cutture of honesty, effective
communication and
accountability
and seek
to ensure
all our
programmes are regularly reviewed and
measures taken where improvetnent is needeiL
We ensure that we work with international
partners who share our values. We work with
grassroots partners, who seek to care for their
own community, providing them with oveTsight
and resources. Their local knowledge helps us
identify the most wjnerable children in their
community and understand their needs. For
this exchange to worK we place a high value on
relationships.
We visit our partners in person and cultivate
openness and honesty with them. Our Christian
and organisational values are made clear al any
rneeting with potential partners.
The pubhc benefit of these activilies is to
create a charitable organisation which is open,
tTansparent and accountable, and which seeks
justice for all chlldren.

Our Children at Risk programme offers
intervention for vulnerable children,
exactly when they need it.
Starting at just £3 a month, Children at Risk donors
know that their money makes a tremendous difterence.
The fund they contribule to enables us to reach out to
chÉldren in unslable circumstances and desperale need.
When a drought destroys crops and threatens lives,
Children at Risk provides food and resource to rebuild.
When a child's farnily hits a crisis that threatens their
ability to survive and stay ill school, Children at Risk
provides the stability they need.
And, in unstable regions like Kayah State in
Myanmar, Children at Risk sustains access to
education and es.sential health supplies.
Airstrikes and drone attacks are a terTifjong fact
of life for children across rebel-controlled areas
of Myanmar, including Kayah Stale, also known as
Karenni State.
Trenches and 'foxholes' are dug around homes and
schools, and children know that when they hear aircraft
Ihey musi run for the jungle- or use the trenches as
makeshift bomb shelters if ihey don't have lime lo reach
Ihe trees.
In southern Kayah Slate, Global
Care's Children At Risk programme
has been supporting 68 teachers and
134 students at four schools, including
iollage primary schools and one ol the
region's only secondary schools- Po
Hoe High School.
Life is often exiremely difficult for these
young people, whose families cannol
iifford lo support ihem, but ihey know
this is Iheir only chance of completing
their education. Gifts of rice and toiletries
encourage children to keep going.
Children like 12-year-old *Zin, Ihe youngest
of seven children. She lives with her sister.
"I Ivaiil to become a medic," she says. "I will
work very hard to reach Inyfuture. Moy God
blessyouforyour help."

Child sponsorship gives
children on the margins
of society the opportunity
to thrive, not just today but
as adults too.
Education is the most importaiit gift
a child can be giveii, bul for many
vulnerable children it is nol an Opiion.
Poverty, discrimination and hunger gel in
the ivay, creating seemingly unassailable
bairiers.
But, when a child is sponsored, those harriers
can be (Ivercorne. Sponsorship pays lor a child's
ediicalion and Ihe resources they iieed to learn.
It can cover the cost of uniform and shoes, provide
essential food for liealth51 development and give
welfare support for children in vulnerable situations.
And it's truly transformational., for every year a girl is
in pi'imary education, her eainillg potential increases by
1201Tr. A future out of poverty suddenls, becomes possihle.
Four-year-old 'Maiy lost rnost of
her toes when slie ivas burned in an
accident i,vhen she w'as }rounger. One
of lier older sisters was also hurt.
It's hc1rd for her dc1d, a rickshaii puller,
to meet the hasic needs of his family lel
alone his dallghters, additional needs.
The family often onl31 ale one meal a day,
and the oldest daughter was on the verge of
dropping out of school.
Tlien our parlners met the family. We found
a sponsor for imary, Ivho noiv has all her
edllcational needs met.
Thanks lo our partner's inlervention and
Mary's sponsor, she is thriving in school.
Not only that: but Ihe extra suppoi't foi.
fvlary means that the family can focus
tlieir resoui'ces on proiryding for iheir
oilier tivo daughtei's. All Ilii'ee sistei-s
aye noi.v in scliool and likely to stay
there.

Our Changemaker projects
enable the ti"ansforrnation of
communities.
In Uganda, our Disability Community
Oulreach project identifies v￿nerable
children living ivith disabilities in the
iollages aiound Soroti district.
These children are often neglected by families
Ihat have neither ihe Tesoulce nor the knowledge
lo help them thrive.
Since the project began in 2021, over 300
'hidden' children have been identified
in five rural dislrici% with Ihe help of
communityleaders.
Salume, our Disability Community
Outreach Officer, assesses each child and
enables access to largelted supporl.
For 11-year-old .. Bale, this changed his life.
He has sickle cell anaemia and has been
unable to walk due to joint sivellings since he
i.vas Six.
He now has a wheelchair and, thanks to
Salume's referral, had a physiotherapy
assessment. His family carry out
physiotherapy exercises with Bale every day.
Once dependent on family carrying him
around, Bale is now able to move around
his community independenily and is back in
school. He says he is no longer living in isolation
instead, he feels free and happy.
