IRFF UK April 2024 to March 2025

Overview

1 Our Mission & Values

Vision : Providing education for, relief to, and improving the health of disadvantaged people as well as enabling sustainable development to as many people and in as many countries as can properly be cared for.

Mission Statement :

There are highly motivated people, primarily volunteers, in the countries we work with, prepared to deliver the services needed and strive to improve themselves to achieve higher levels of self-sufficiency.

Therefore, more can be achieved for the beneficiaries, even when funding from the UK may be limited. The programmes IRFF UK supports - such as Primary, Secondary, Vocational Education and health initiatives - are literally life savers and life changers for the beneficiaries.

All funds sent to Africa go directly to the people who will spend it charitably - and account for it. It is not channelled through any "extractive" system.

The value of education in African countries cannot be underestimated. Poor educational levels frustrate all efforts to raise the living standards of a population above subsistence level and very few can break out of a poverty cycle without higher skills. Education is a human right, a powerful driver of development, and one of the strongest instruments for reducing poverty and improving health, gender equality, peace, and stability.

For example, the young people in the Slovo Study Group are offered online learning at secondary level + special tutoring at a level which they could never obtain locally. Equally the continued work of the Destiny primary school in Uganda is growing successful while the literacy education being offered at a school in Walmer, Port Elizabeth, South Africa is boosting the ability of children to learn there. and education of 60 street children in the DR Congo , unimaginable for them without the efforts of the HFC team in Goma as well as the school in Senegal all contributed to giving a quality education to the next generations in Africa– see more in the descriptions below.

Regarding period poverty The World Bank estimates that at least 500 million women and girls globally lack access to the facilities they need to manage their periods. Just in South Africa alone up to 7 million schoolgirls do not have access to or cannot afford sanitary products, and many of them must stay home. They often use unhygienic methods to manage their periods which can cause health problems and infections. Often, girls and women must choose between buying food or sanitary products because of the costs. When faced with this difficult choice, many choose to purchase food as it is more of a priority. As a result, many must face the health and social consequences of not having sanitary products.

The GirlChild project in Uganda had long been supported by IRFF UK from 2015 to finance education of schoolgirls about menstrual health and also how to make their own reusable pads. This was paused halfway through 2022 but was re-launched under new

leadership from March 2023 and throughout the financial year 2023/2024 ultimately serving up to 400 girls in three schools in Uganda – but this time providing disposable pads because reusables would be too much for the young girls to manage in the absence of adequate parental support.

WAIT Ghana launched their period poverty project fully in early February 2023 and throughout the financial year 2023/2024 ultimately serving up to 574 girls in a number of villages in Ghana with reusable pads they had made by seamstresses which should last for 2-4 years. Finally Walmer Angels South Africa launched their period poverty project in early 2023 and throughout the financial year 2023/2024 serving primary school girls in a school in Walmer, Port Elizabeth, in this case disposable pads because water is so scarce in that area.

The period poverty projects are in a class of their own but, in part, could be also be seen as a sub-classification of Education since the girls supported can gain back the ability, comfortably and safely to attend school also during the days they are menstruating, no longer losing about 20% of their schooling days that they would otherwise lose. There are also other education benefits which the headmistress of Destiny School in Uganda describes eloquently under “ GirlChild period poverty project ” below

Under the classification “ TVET – Technical and Vocational Education ”, one project had to be dropped at the end of March 2024 and that was GESTP in Gambia, since communication became almost non-existent. IRFF UK was not actively funding the project, but an IRFF UK trustee was from the USA, but still IRFF UK had some management obligations there, so it was decided to move on and find other projects. However, the work under “TVET” continued in a small way on Ghana with training being offered to young women both in baking/bread and cake making and sewing/dressmaking.

The Gambia project was rapidly replaced by another classification of projects “ Soup kitchens ” after a plea for help was received from the Walmer Angels in Port Elizabeth since they were not able to raise the funds to run a soup kitchen feeding 500 old people and children their one meal a day in the Walmer township.

DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO

By May 2024 the hand-over of the 60 street children to a local charity, TAD, was completed and IRFF’s involvement, which had been intense, ended then. All went well after that until the end of January 2025 when the M23 rebels entered Goma and the young men, in particular, were in danger and had to get out of the city. This also included male officers at TAD who dropped the children back into HFCs lap and fled, without leaving any funds. IRFF UK and WCA provided for food costs again as well as the $400 needed by six of the seven HFC male volunteers to flee far from the city but Ben, the HFC coordinator, stayed to take care of the 20 foster families who had taken three orphan children each. He was in danger!

He finally left Goma mid-March. He believes he owes his life to the small support IRFF UK and WCA could give to pay for his travel costs.

The challenge now was to find a way to support the 20 families taking care of the 60 HFC children. It was finally agreed that $3,000 would be enough to have the 20 foster mothers trained and equipped with goods and equipment so that could run their own market sales business to be self-sufficient in providing for the children in their care. Again, working in cooperation WCA and IRFF UK were able to raise those funds and get them to the families by mid-June 2025.

GHANA

WAIT Ghana made more great strides in the year running a period poverty project by having reusable pads made and distributing them, with education, in various villages, as well as arranging for girls to be taught pastry/cake decoration and bread and cake making as the TVET activity. The WAIT Coordinator, Mrs Vivian Nkasia, made a number of trips to various villages, to the community of Wute, Logote, Lawui near the city of Akatsi in the Volta Region donating reusable pads and providing education. The great advantage of issuing reusable pads is that they are to new girls every time which is why we estimate that that WAIT Ghana already reached about 700 girls by the end March .

Regarding the TVET projects, Vivian wrote at the end of March that the sewing and catering training have gone but then she was for new information to come from a new government in Ghana about TVET in Ghana.

SOUTH AFRICA

SHINE Walmer

As the most unequal country in the world, South Africa faces significant challenges. Among 50 countries, South Africa ranks the worst in literacy. 8 out of 10 Grade 4 learners (9-10 years old) in South Africa cannot read for meaning .

Children cannot learn from one of the biggest sources of knowledge – books – if they cannot read. Literacy education opens up a world of learning to them and contributes strongly to them achieving much more in their lives – what every parent hopes for their children. The number of pupils in the SHINE programme was 73 during the year . In November 2024 Pat Hippert wrote: “I need to thank the IRFF Team and her Sponsors for the confident and professional difference you make in our program in our Township school. Keeping it modestly manageable, I repeat the gratitude from my previous newsletter: Your generous IRFF sponsorship has enabled our Centre to run smoothly with sufficient stationery, quality teaching aids, coffee and tea refreshments for the double shift volunteers, a colourful library environment, tape strengthened and coded library books and learner library cards. Each element is subtle but important for the enthusiastic and energetic environment that our Volunteers and learners flourish in”.

SOUTH AFRICA

Period poverty project

At least 3 out of 10 girls miss school every month because of period problems in South Africa so the Walmer School decided to do something about that. They were obliged to offer disposable pads because of a lack of water but that could change. In 2024 IRFF funded the project from January providing disposable pads at a cost of £0.90 per girl per month; this includes menstrual health education given to girls, and boys, by a trained nurse. This is changing their lives for the better, removing a major reason for them missing school. Glenda Brunette who founded the Walmer Angel Project wrote in March: “I've just been to The Walmer Lower Primary school and handed out sanitary towels to four grade 7 classes. Each girl received 2 packets each for the month. I will hand out next month again.

I spoke to the teachers and students to ask them how they felt about receiving the assistance. None were shy and said they really appreciate the help as most families cannot afford to purchase personal hygiene products.

Thank you once again for your continuous support in helping us to make the young girls more comfortable.

I had a meeting with the Headmistress and Deputy Headmistress yesterday and they said I must convey their appreciation”.

The soup kitchen project

The simple funding of the soup kitchen at the Walmer Township in Port Elizabeth continued since we cannot see 500 children and old people go hungry.

The journalist Estelle Ellis wrote on 9th Nov 2023:

“Children are dying of hunger in the Eastern Cape – declare a disaster, urges Human Rights Commission”.

Destiny School

This school was established by IRFF UK in 2008. During the annual period the average number of pupils taught increased to 206. Once again it was a very dynamic year at the school; IRFF UK sent £13,800 to run the school and £12,500 to fund infrastructure projects such as 01/11/24 biodigester toilets, 25/02/25 To Destiny School account for the Busabala School water well

£4,500.00.

Previous years had seen a camera security system there, more fire extinguishers, completion of the security wall.

About the head teacher Jesca who has been dedicating her life to children in Kibiri just south of Kampala:

There are currently 206 pupils at the school, but she tells us that it has capacity for 400, and she is ambitious to reach that number . Regular reports provided by the headteacher Jesca about 2024 tell us:

• In April they reported they still have a big challenge regarding furniture and seats across our classes. Also, with students getting minor accidents and being sick at school, they are looking at getting a school nurse to assist, especially the very young ones in pre-primary and those that stay with teacher Jesca.

• On School Academic Day the children displayed the skills they had learned in class and vocational skills like tailoring, there was

making of sweaters and cooking, art and craft plus farming, poultry for their parents.

• They were able to do their end of Term 1 examinations successfully, the general performance is fairly good, though they still have many children who are struggling with reading and writing. They still need to assist these children in reading and have few reading books in the library but hope they will be able to get some more over time, to help the children practice and develop their reading culture. • In June they did beginning of term exams to seek to bring to speed the holiday makers back into school mood; these exams were done successfully.

• They had to host a couple of visitors such as inspectors of school from Ministry of Education and Municipality. They also hosted the Buganda Kingdom

administrators from the Kabaka (King of Buganda) Palace visitors who were so happy with the school administration and the way Destiny Junior School is teaching Ugandan children.

• They feed the pupils at school with the most balanced diet they can, including own-grown produce.

• They had their mid-term examinations on 30th July 2024, a very important examination to do assess the pupils and the teachers by examining the study syllabus content taught and to see whether the pupils have picked up the content and can interpret or understood the taught concepts. They then invited the parents to review and as well to see how far the school has reached in the different aspects of education and learning. They also held Music Dance and Drama in July which was so colourful with creativity; it was and interesting to see how pupils expressed themselves in music, poems and dance to pass on very educative information to the parents and community. 6 November was the first day for the Primary Seven candidates sitting for their

Primary Leaving Examinations. They prepared well starting with Mathematics in the morning and Social Studies in the afternoon.

PERIOD POVERTY PROJECTS

Period poverty projects involving education of menstruating schoolgirls in menstrual health and also supplying them with pads were developed by local teams during the year in Ghana , South Africa and Uganda; funding was acquired for these from FFWPU UK.

The projects run by WAIT Ghana and in South Africa are discussed above .

The GirlChild/WAIT team in Uganda immediately catered for 30 girls at Destiny School, then about 200 more at the nearby Busabala School and even began to look after girls at a third school, Jjungo Church of Uganda Primary School, with approx. 150 more girls involved.

The effect of this work, particularly in Busabala School, went far beyond

menstrual hygiene training and receipt of pads. As Jesca, the head teacher at Destiny School reported: “ Busabala Primary School.

The program has impacted the girl child so much and at every visit that we do and there is a reported increase in the number of girl child we assist.

The girl children are studying better, are not losing days off school, are particularly Feeling cared for and loved.

Jjungo Church Of Uganda Primary School This is extremely in a village set up, the parents and guardians do not value education as much as elsewhere, and the pupils are also less caring towards education, enter into early childhood marriages and stay away from school during the rainy sessions, planting and harvesting seasons. Much work to do there.

After doubling its pupil numbers partly due to GC WAIT work Busabala Primary School needed a better water supply, which IRFF UK funded.

The significant differences in the financials in the year 2024/2025 compared to the previous financial year were:

On the income side

  1. The overall income in 2024/2025 was £28,111 greater than in the previous year due to a reduction in the funding for Senegal of £21,609 which meant that the core funding for other IRFF projects rose by £8,655.

  2. General donations , mainly from the charity shop and Gift Aid, both healthy.

  3. Destiny School sponsorship income was very slightly higher, and the Destiny School infrastructure project income increased by £3,926

  4. Other items for South Africa like SHINE Walmer School P.E. , Slovo Study Group and the Walmer Angels soup kitchen increased while some income arrived to

offset the high DR Congo costs and the incomes for period poverty projects rose significantly.

On the expenditure side :

  1. The overall costs in 2024/2025 rose by £28,472 partly due to passing on of donations to Senegal.

  2. An increase in costs was seen for fundraising , DR Congo and Destiny School infrastructure projects .

  3. A few projects experienced a decrease in costs.

IRFF UK finished the year ending 31[st] March 2025 with £16,969 in reserves consisting of: £13,183 in General Funds , £942 in the Destiny School fund , £103 in the DR Congo project fund , £130 in the Ghana TVET fund , £1,796 in the period poverty projects fund, and £796 in the Senegal fund and £19 in the SHINE fund . The overall figure was just £346 more than last year’s figure.

Plans for the period 1[st] April 2025 to 31[st] March 2026

This period will be characterised by:

We welcome all offers of support to serve current and future beneficiaries and thank you all in advance for any intentions in that direction.
