Charitable Trusts and Foundations

Many trusts and foundations make donations to our general funds, providing us with the flexibility to be innovative, to respond quickly to emergency situations and to plan for the future. They are vital to our work.

However, we also recognise that many trusts wish to give to specific projects or project components. Such contributions are also critical, whether providing compulsory match funding for government grants or helping successful projects to expand their work into neighbouring districts - or even countries.

FARM-Africa is keen to form new relationships with charitable trusts and foundations. If you are a trustee or have links with a trust and would like to find out more about how your support could help FARM-Africa change the lives of African farming families, please contact FARM-Africa's Trust Fundraising Manager.

	Jacklille Baltazar - Tanzania Jacklille Baltazar is the Chairwoman of Sebedaga Women's Group in Babati, Tanzania, and a member of the Toggenburg Breeders' Association. She is immensely proud of her goats and her status as the first woman in the area to receive them. The Sebedaga Women's Group plans to establish a credit scheme to give out loans for further goat-keeping activities which means that more families will benefit from the project. The goats have had an incredible impact on her life. "Before, my children were malnourished; now they're healthy and happy because of the milk.  Money from the goats enabled my eldest daughter to go to secondary school and now she is a teacher working for the government.  Any extra income we get from the goats pays for schooling."
