develop continue the project in the Gambia that will support locals who
ordinarily wouldn’t have access to education to learn new skills. The
school currently being built, and we hope to have this ready in 2025
We have held quarterly meetings via Zoom to discuss how to continue to
develop our work in the Gambia and trustees have been working to
generate some incomes through fundraising which has so far all been
sent to the Gambia for our projects there.
The costings have increased for materials, and it is very unstable. We
need to raise another 15000 pounds to be able to finish the project
moving forward.
We did not have a bank account until May/June last year, which is now
with Unity Trust. We also just launched a new website which will help
raise funds. We hope to be able to start to get sponsorships for children
prior to opening the school and use these funds to finish the project.|
