Afritrex - The Charities
FARM Africa - Official Charity no. 326901
FARM-Africa is a well known UK based charity whose extensive work with farming communities throughout Eastern and Southern Africa is helping to people to manage their natural resources more effectively and build sustainable livelihoods on their own land.
We hope to visit some of FARM-Africa’s projects during our journey to see first-hand the work which is being undertaken and the improvement it is making to people’s lives. We have both been involved in fundraising for the charity in the past
Why have we chosen these three charities that are very different?
It is about doing the right thing:
The two charities that focus directly on Africa are charities whose focus we appreciate: a focus on the simple distribution of information. Using techniques readily available in the industrialised countries in those yet to industrialise to take farming and sufficiency to a level where real, year-on-year, community-based growth can occur. What could be more simple? Trickle up economics from the global information network.
