The landmark Sutton Trust Report (https://www.suttontrust.com/our-priorities/) on social mobility reported Britain at the bottom of the social mobility league tables and that more than half of the gaps in achievement of children at age 11 are due to inequality that was already present at the age five; these gaps are never made up. In other words, the lifetime chances of children are largely established before the age 5. Uplift (Devon) seeks to improve the lives and life-chances of any child under the age of five in the South-West, by providing professional support and spaces for families to meet, learn and make connections.

Our primary goal is to support internationally adopted Guatemalan children to connect with their Guatemalan roots. We also support two Guatemalan NGO's. The history of violence against indigenous populations, natural disasters, poverty, and illiteracy can best be dealt with in partnership with Guatemalans. Behrhorst projects promote self-sufficiency, foster community development, and enhance the education and health of people working to make a better life for their children and communities. Pueblo a Pueblo projects respond to the devastating poverty and deprivation in targeted indigenous villages. Projects work to build the community’s ability to thrive on its own while achieving health, food security, and education for local families. Many GFA families have visited the villages where these two charities are working. They have seen the difference our contributions make. Together, we will make the struggle to survive and be productive a little easier. Charity No: 1105241 Find out more Website http://www.gfa-uk.org/drupal/
