Transforming communities through empowerment
We work to reduce poverty in Lawra, rural Ghana, where the majority rely on subsistence farming and food is scarce for months at a time.

How we work
We’re implementing a strategy of integrated programmes to tackle the cycle of poverty, which reach a broad cross-section of the community in defined rural areas. We call this strategy our ‘Hub Model’.
Our Impact
What we’ve been up to
Special Needs Awareness Programme.
Our newly built Inclusion Centre, situated in the heart of Lawra, is host to a twice weekly SNAP Play Scheme for disabled children, and support services for their families, led by our amazing Play Scheme Co-ordinator Ernestina.
Amatus represents everything that is positive and hopeful about ATE. In less than one year, he has built a thriving Moisturiser cream business with support from ATE, employed two people, won a scholarship to study at University in Accra – and is planning to open a factory next year. And he’s only 19!

Where does your donation go?
83p of your donation goes directly towards our project costs in Ghana, and the rest goes on making sure the charity runs effectively so that all that can happen. We are financially transparent and carefully monitor and evaluate our work to ensure that the money you donate is used in the best way possible.
