PEOPLE FOR CHANGE 

People for Change projects are based in The Gambia, Ballanghar. Underpinning our mission is the ardent belief that every child has the right to health, food, education - and a decent life. As such, our mission is centered around 3 pillars of change: Health: conducting medical visits, Education: supporting a local school and Nutrition: supporting the school to provide a meal a day to 500 students.

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
