WHAT NEXT?

The Atiamah Trust started fund raising in early 2004 and was registered as a charity in July 2004. We are a small charity run entirely by volunteers. We try very hard to constrain our overheads so that the funds we raise go almost totally to the projects and causes we support. We send only money; no clothes, food or other material goods. This is because we encourage our partners in Ghana to manage their own affairs. We do not want to dictate what is best for them - they know what is best and must determine their own priorities and we must give them the flexibility to do that.

So "what next?" is more and more fund raising. But the more we raise the more sophisticated our help can be. Remember that those who are helped are supported in their own communities.

The funds that we raise will be used to help the poorest families, and orphans in particular, in 3 main ways:

  • Food (food supplements, seeds, farm animals, tools, ploughs etc)
  • Healthcare (medicines, equipment, training, transport, health insurance etc)
  • Education (school rooms, desks, books, sports equipment, uniforms etc)

The list is long.............!
