Our new Welfare Department is overseeing and implementing outreach strategies that cater to the wider African Community. Our primary objective for this year is to raise enough funds to build a well in Somalia, and to provide re-usable sanitary products in Zimbabwe and Ghana. Apart from assisting organisations across Africa, we will be supporting other societies such as Warwick Bala, in order to fulfil this objective. 

The first project that we will be working on is the Well project in Somalia. Only 45% of Somalis have access to improved water sources and this increases the risk of outbreaks of waterborne diseases. Cholera is endemic and claims hundreds of lives annually, particularly in densely populated areas. Increasing access to safe water must also be accompanied by efforts to ensure the quality of drinking water. (UNICEF, 2019)
