Tz Rising is a registered charity with the England and Wales Commission #1162345. Addresss: 3 Brick Row, Newry, BT34 3BQ, Northern Ireland Tz Rising currently has six trustees: Katie Rees (Chair) Laura Murray Cecilia Makundi Caitlin Wale Faye Jones Maeve Hanna The trustees meet every quarter to discuss activities and objectives. Trustees have so far been recruited internally from our volunteer community, but the charity looks to expand to recruit externally to increase our Tanzanian representation in the UK and experience. TZ Rising has both a UK based Coordinator and Tanzanian based Coordinator who oversee all activity within their respective region, The charity is otherwise supported solely by volunteers,
OBJECTIVES FOR 2020-2021 The main objectives of this period were: 1) To ensure the successful continuation of our education prosramme with vulnerable young women In Moshi, Tanzania 2) Limit spending both in Tz and UK so to increase the longevity of our current funds. 3) Maintain media operations to remain in contact with our community. 4) Ensure the safety of our community in Tanzania through the ongoing Covid pandemic.
PERFORMANCE AGAINST OBJECTIVES 1) To ensure the successful continuation of our education programme with vulnerable young women in Moshi, Tanzania The charity supported 19 women in this period studyins in Secondary School, College, and University across Tanzania, The charity successfully paid in full the school fees for each, totaling £20,118, allowing each student to continue their studies unaffected by the financial constraints created by Covid pandemic. b>
) Llmit spendins both In Tz and UK so to increase the longevity of our current funds. The charityPs flasship fundraiser, a UK 100 KM hike was cancelled due to the Covid pandemic. Donated funds for 2021 totaled £20,881, a significant reduction from £69,175 collected in the prior year, In addition, the Charitys UK coordinator had a period of leave due to personal illness, It was therefore crucial to limit outsoinss to ensure existing account balance could meet all upcomins education programme fees until fundraising events could be rescheduled, Current Year/ Previous Year Donation and Grants £20881/ £69175 Expenditure in Tz £20118/ £19140 Expenditure in UK; £96141 £24,206 As you can see we reduced expenditure in the UK successfully, from £24206 to £9614, while Tz expenditure remained approximately the same at £20118; which is essential as this was only spent on our young women's education.
3) Maintain media operations to remain in contact with our community. Tz Rising's donor base is predominantly UK based, and fundraising is by two main methods: individual supporters throushout the UK completing challenge events or individual monthly donors, Effective and consistent communications to update and inspire our community is key to retaining support for the charity, As in-person meetings and events were largely not permitted in the UK during this period, Tz Rising continued to keep in contact with our financial supporters through email and social media, predominantly Instasram. We are satisfied that an adequate level of media communication was maintained with our supporters, and no long-term damage was caused by lack of in-person events.
4) Ensure the safety of our community in Tanzania through the ongoing Covid pandemic. The proactive steps Tz Rising had taken during the initial outbreak of the Covid pandemic in 2020, allowed us to maintain the wellbeins of our community in Tanzania during 2021 with no additional Covid-specific support required. The additional support offered during the 2020 period included but was not limited to; Two Microfinance loans for two individuals to start new businesses Emergency accommodation for one family Emergency food support packages 114
PUBLIC BENEFIT Tz Rising operates to serve young women in poverty in Tanzania. The charity focuses on young women in difficult situations who are striving for independence through education. In this year, we supported 19 women on their journeys. 14 of which are now in Third-level education at Collese or University through Tanzania, and 5 who are in their last years of Upper Secondary School. Each young woman has been supported since she was a young girl in Lower Secondary School. We focus on whole solutions with each person, compared to helpins many children with one issue. This means we can support each young woman with not just Secondary School, but also College, applying for jobs, and other issues such as healthcare, sexual health, food support and so on. This rounded support provides our students with the best possible chance of success,
CHARITY HIGHLIGHTS Two students, Magsy and Jacki, who have been enrolled in Tz Rising's Education Programme from lower secondary school, entered their final year of university, Being the first two of our students to reach this significant milestone, it was a huse moment for our charity. 2021 also saw a record number of 14 girls reach College or University, A further 5 sirls in the programme are in their final year of upper secondary school and plan to enter College or University in 2022. | ?SCHII
ADDITIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS 25 new sanitation packs were delivered to the girls, from our community partner Shared Threads based in Rostrevor, Ireland. Each pack contains multiple reusable sanitary pads to assist our girls with managing their menstrual health.

For this reason, the charity endeavored to restrict spending (Objective 2) to ensure commitments to school fees could be met during this period.
