General Fund

Thank you for considering a donation, regular planned giving, through a standing order allows us to plan ahead allowing for a more sustainable future for GAGA and the projects we support. Of course, we are always grateful for a one-off donation, if you feel that you cannot commit to a regular donation and there are lots of ways you can support us indirectly through selecting charitable giving portals when you are shopping on-line. We're registered with Amazon Smile, Give as You Live, and more!
Vision, mission and values

We believe every child deserves a future to look forward to. So we raise funds to strengthen the provision of education and healthcare for orphans and vulnerable children and their care givers in Southern Africa, from infancy to independence. If you agree that every child deserves a future and you believe in helping where you can, please join us. Together we can make a difference.
