CHARITY

a little help goes a long way

Supporting disadvanted children from a small fishing community in The Gambia to access basic primary education at Aunty Dorricing's International School

This will enable children to achieve a better start in life by helping them to escape the poverty trap.

A.D.I Funds 4 School was formed as a charity in 2012 and registered with the charity commission in March 2014.

One of the founders

Our aim is to raise money to fund individual children's education who attend school in a small fishing community in The Gambia

Why the need?

The Gambia has a basic education system and families must bear some of the costs. There are insufficient Government funded school places.

Around 40% of children do not go to school because their families are unable to pay the fees.

The School

Aunty Dorricing's International School, was created in 2009 in a small room overseen by the present Principal Alex Mensah before moving to a partially completed larger building.

There was no electricity or running water and very basic toilet facilities comprising of a hole in the ground surrounded by corrugated sheets.

How you can help?

You can Sponsor a Gambian child ensuring they can attend primary school for £70, that's the equivalent of £1.35 per week. That will provide:
