## **Section C Objectives and activities**

## **Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document**
The charity seeks to help impoverished children in Ghana - including orphans to get an education and to give encouragement and support to the parents /guardians in becoming financially sustainable. Thereby reducing the impact of poverty on young lives – equipping them for the future.
There was no local fundraising event due to Covid-19. However, the charity increased pursuit of sending appeal letters to grant funding trusts. This was successful.
**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)**
Operation for the year ending 2021, continued to be successful, despite COVID-19. The charity’s commitments to the young lives we support, were met. The charity was able to build a good rapport and relationship with the children through regular phone calls and video calls, though many connection challenges, conversations were had.
The charity cannot guarantee receipt of grants and therefore has a strategy to reserve funds to cover emergencies with these young lives, and to keep them in education. It is therefore our aim to have a buffer beyond our planned yearly commitments.
It is the charity’s plan to visit Ghana at least once per year to further develop relationships with children and families and to further the charity’s objectives. A visit is planned for 2022. These trips are planned to include educational visits, activity clubs and parents’ workshops. The charity appeals for grants are target led.
The Trustees agree that the school at large could benefit hugely from developing the school’s computer science lab. However, due to lack of security, only a few computers were installed in a small secure area. We hope to address this and provide more computers in the coming year.
