How are we getting on with our grand plans?

Back in March we snipped the big red ribbon on our priorities for 2024. Here we are, two months on, to report on how we are getting on with that stack of plans...

Rising cases of HIV/Cholera ✔️✔️

In April we held our first ever cholera awareness event and an incredible 402 people were in attendance.

Following this hugely successful day, the village Chiefs of Chilambe and Malika asked us to hold similar functions in their catchment areas and local health practitioners invited us to collaborate with them on their polio vaccination campaign - joining forces to spread awareness of cholera protection and prevention at the same time as offering free polio vaccinations in the community.
Through this second activity, we were able to share life-saving information with another 367 people, meaning in the month of April we spoke to 769 community members; spreading awareness of cholera, hygiene and stressing the importance of drinking safe water through chlorination, cholera prevention, treatment and first aid mechanism. Incredible work from our team, and big thanks to our generous donors.

Welcome to our new office! ✔️
​
This is something we have wanted as an organisation for such a long time, and thanks to a group of generous donors, we've finally secured a space! This will not only give our dedicated staff team a safe and peaceful place to work and store learning materials, but it will also help to further show the community that we are a professional organisation, with an official HQ, and we are here to stay.

What's next?

We are really proud of what we have achieved together already, but there is still much work to be done! Our new targets, to be achieved by the end of June are:

Poor crop yields
Make a plan for the first stage of our community training programme on irrigation farming, we need £250 to do this 🌾

Office space
Kit out our new office space, we need £100 to do this 🪑

That means, by the end of June we are hoping to raise £350 in additional funds. If you would like to support this next stage of our work and help us tick off the next grand plan please hit the big button below. We will be forever grateful...
