Samara's Aid Appeal

YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, 1171707) Samara's Aid Appeal is focused on providing humanitarian and medical aid. Our current focus is on Syria and Iraq. We aim to demonstrate the unconditional love of God through meeting people's practical needs. We are made up exclusively of volunteers in the UK as we are keen to spend every possible penny on the people in need rather than covering UK overheads. Samara's Aid Appeal collects and sends physical aid from the UK to Syria and Iraq. Our teams on the ground distribute this to the people in need. Most of these are internally displaced people (IDP's) who have either lost or been forced from their homes by groups who are fighting. We also buy aid locally in the form of food, winter fuel and other essentials to meet the most basic needs of of the poorest and most vulnerable. We also have a dedicated medical team, hospitals and medical facilities in Syria which we have founded, and maintain each month. In a country were around two thirds of medical facilities have closed, an estimated 30,000 people are injured every month in the war, while 85% of the population are living in poverty, the medical services we provide are life-saving.

The Turing Trust
(UK, 1156687) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00Welcome to the Turing Trust... The Turing Trust is an African micro-development charity set up in 2009 to develop sustainable rural schools in Ghana. The Turing Trust was set up by James Turing in response to the unfair poverty he saw in a Ghanaian school during his gap year. He was shocked at how the school managed to operate without a single textbook for over 50 students and was compelled to help them. The Trust has a Ghanaian branch (registered in Ghana as the Turing Foundation) which carries out several activities involving the school. The schools name is the Afoako ICCES (Integrated Community Centre for Employable Skills) and is located in a small village in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. By raising awareness and funding in the UK this will enable the Trust to support the local, community-led ICCES who give children the education, support and inspiration they need to transform their lives. We fundraise through our enthusiastic supporters in our local communities to help the schools and wonderful communities who have made such a strong impression on the founding members of the Turing Trust. With all of this support we are able to make huge changes to the lives of the children we work with in Ghana. Since the Trust began we have enabled 20 extra students to gain an education each year by constructing a girls dormitory, we have built and furnished a computer lab enabling a whole community to access to the digital world, donated over £30,000 and 55 computers to our associated schools in Ghana and most importantly ensured that hundreds of students have been able to gain an education.
