Mlssion Statement
For the public benefit, the relief and assistance of people in need in Sub-saharan
Africa who are the victims of poverty and natural disaster or catastrophe by
supplying them with food, water, clothes, medical aid, and education and to further
such other purposes which may be charitable according to the law of England and
Wales as the trustees see fit from time to time.
Activlties and Projects
Children are at the heart of the charity's work, and we aim to ensure that
underprivileged children have access to education, medical assistance, and a safe
environment to live in, play and grow. This is achieved by implementing sustainable
development projects across sub-saharan Africa for education, food security,
entrepreneurship, and health in less privileged communities.
Educational Projects
The charity runs weekly voluntary classes to help facilitate people's integration into
society through language, communication skills, mathematics, and basic needs (see
link below).

Textile Project
This project aims to ensure that people (especially children) have access to suitable
clothing all year round. This will prevent people from becoming ill due to inadequate
projection from weather conditions, particularly in the winter. The charity ships 1-3

40ft or 20ft containers from the United Klngdom to Africa full of donations on yearly
basis to help ald those in need and this is done through the help of our internatlonal
partners and donors (watch video below).

How we work
The charity delivers its aims by Implementing well-structured, adequate, and
sustainable projects in the various countries it operates in Africa with the support of
regular donors within the UK and beyond. The charity has established local teams led
by local volunteers who represent and carry out the charivs mission together with
the trustees who run the charity voluntarily and travel to Africa regularly to work
with the teams. Moreover, we build strong networks and partnerships with private
and public sector bodies who facilitate our work and help us achieve our objectives.
Voluntary help and glfts in kind
The trustees are extremely grateful to all the people that believe in our work. They
have helped the charity by volunteering their time carrying out fundraising activities,
in particular those who work with us across sub-saharan Africa helping to implement
and maintain our projects. Although monetary donations are still scarce, the public
and local businesses have generously provided gifts in kind, mainly donations of
clothing and other materials which are detrimental to our objectives. Without them,
we wouldn't be able to carry out all the work we do.
What we did in 2023: Action and Financial Review 2023
During the year funds have provided by the trustees to cover regular costs such as
shipment and domain. The total amount raised was £5,302 (five thousand, three
hundred and two pounds), while total spending was £5,367 (five thousand, three
hundred and sixty-seven pounds). Total income was used to ship 40ft containers full
of donations from the United Kingdom to Africa (Angola) and maintain our storage
place in Oxfordshire, pay our monthly domain, and hire man with a van service to
collect large amount of donations across the UK. The donations shipped allowed us

to run various large-scale humanitsrian missions such as the annual health fair in
rural communities of Bengo.
Plans for the future
Continue to build global partnership and scale up our impact in Angola by taking our
work to more provinces while expanding the ongoing projects such as our Digital and
Ecological Village and our Project Light. Additionally, next year we will launch a new
projects focus on youth through the concept of social enterprise as a business model
for young people. Our main goal for the next five years is to become the leading
global charity operating for the betterment of Africa.
