Section C Objectives and activities
2 March 2012
TAR
OUR AIMS
The Charity's object is to advance the education of the public in particular, but not exclusively, in Senegal by the provision of grants for the construction, refurbishment and decoration of elementary schools.
Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document
We aim to provide a first-class education to the deprived people of Subsaharan West Africa; Our initial target is to work closely with Senegal's local communities with a goal of "Education for All". We strive to provide a structured educational atmosphere to our less fortunate members of the society to nourish and enrich their natural aptitudes, capabilities and talents. We promote our learners' academic, moral and physical development by providing them with an environment where they can flourish their inbuilt abilities. We have observed learners coming to a local school in their daily life clothes, sitting on mats instead of chairs, holding their books instead of tables, renting a property instead of having a proper building.
FACE planned to help them upgrade in the year 2019-20 by providing school uniforms, chairs and tables.
OUR OBJECTIVES
Our objectives are the reflection of our aims. It's critical to us that we sustain and improve the standard of the FACE.
In establishing our objectives and planning our activities this year, our Trustees have given thorough consideration to the Charity Commission's public benefit guidance. However, these objectives are set in the context of the broader goals we set for the Charity itself.
