Big Give Christmas Challenge hits target!
Change through education
We work with 9 schools, providing meals, educational resources and sanitary products that enable pupils to learn on full stomachs and with dignity. So far, weโve helped more than 3000 young people access education. Olivia (above) goes to Bagri Junior High and appreciates the monthly sanitary pads provision:
โIt helps us come to school. We girls are much happier.โ
Change through enterprise
We have backed 135 small businesses with grants, training and mentoring, enabling them to become sustainable and profitable. Forty-eight girls (including 7 with disabilities) have learnt a trade through our apprenticeship scheme. Barikisu (above) runs one of 24 ATE-backed dry season farms:
โATE gave me all I needed to succeed.โ
Change through inclusion
We bringing disabled children into the light, challenging stigma and enabling them to learn and laugh. Our SNAP disability project supports 600 children and carers across 6 locations, providing education, equipment, medication, advocacy and lots of joy. Tierto (above, with Julita and Charles) says:
โThe main reason I love SNAP meetings is I know I am not alone. I have learnt new things, I worry much less, life has improved.โ
