The organization was registered as a social and human development agency.

“I am sure you providing an invaluable service to the social sector and contributing immensely through this web service to poverty reduction in your own little way. One critical path we always have to cross as a local organization is funding in the long term to support our programmes and projects and the more we are able to find donors who support our initiatives the better. I must say your web service has been quite helpful. I would on this note like your support in getting us an online volunteer who would work with us broadly in showcasing what we do and helping us build a website.”

“Sustainability, Yes. It’s important. However there are many areas needing intervention. As some issues are being resolved, others are creeping up in the same zones or others areas. Remember limited funds. So the game is to do some here and do some there, and trust that perhaps others might take up the new challenges that crops up. The issue is that total solutions are yet to be designed by anyone around this realm. So we do what we can. In faith. Like a friend said to me, do the little you can, for little drops of water can indeed make an ocean. Hopefully over time. Regards.”
