| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | The main achievement of the charity over the last year was raising funds to open a school in Koma, Adamawa State, Nigeria. The primary impact is enabling local access to a quality education to the children of Koma, which contributes to the overall development of every child and their family. One identified secondary effect includes improved access to opportunities and a better future. A typical child in Koma hills would walk up to 8 hours daily to collect water. By helping more children to receive education will also positively impact the future economy and long-term prospects of the region and wider Nigerian economy. This work also has a local impact through its team members based in London. Through social-media and fundraising activities we have reached and inspired many young people in the London area. Awareness was raised of important world issues such as the lack of clean water and poverty. Our activities have also promoted civic responsibility by providing young people the opportunity to improve the quality of people’s lives in underdeveloped countries in a way they would not have thought previously possible. |
