Supporting the Take Care Nursery School in Farato-Sotokoi-Daru in West Gambia

 

Our aims and objectives are to raise funds for:
 
  

 
• The day to day running of the school including teachers salaries


• Capital projects, for example, the building of a new classroom block and kitchen, the well to be re–dug and a perimeter wall to be built around the school compound
 
• Provision of tables and chairs for all classrooms
 
• Establish a feeding programme for the pupils of the school

• To obtain donations of books, writing equipment, teaching aids, toys and childrens clothes

• To establish links with nurseries, schools and other educational establishments

 

  • Shipping a container of goods over to the nursery school

     

    Longer term aims include:

    • providing a stand-alone solar powered pump for the well at the nursery
    • providing solar power for the nursery school
    • assisting with setting up the Health Centre in the village of Farato
