Rural communities are an extensive ALG programme implemented in
the underprivileged areas of Chongoene, Nhancutse, Banhine and
Bungane. It involves c.300
children sponsored by UPG Portugal. The Project’s area includes building huts,
a pre-school, scholarship holders, water wells, etc.
ALG policy on the ground
has always been based in being close to our beneficiaries through Local
Partners – respected community members who describe us, on a daily basis, the
difficulties and successes of our programmes. These Partners are also the ones
who guarantee the budget implementation and who account for every expenditure,
made with the help of your donations, in a transparent way.
Since April, ALG
set up a partnership with diocesan priests: Father Alex and Father Elpídeo.
Father Alex is continuing Vincentian Father Amine’s hard work, before being
transferred to another region in Mozambique. Father Elpídio is supervising our
programmes in the area and, under his supervision, this year EFI pre-school
flourished with an excellent supervisor - Cremilde, new toilets and happier
children.
ALG continues to
invest in narrowing relationships with Local Partners - local communities’
active members mainly but not exclusively, from religious orders. Our daily
work with Local Partners enables us to consolidate our policy aimed at
investing and controlling, in an efficient and timely way, the funds from
Portugal and UK. We aim to break the poverty cycle in Xai-Xai, Chokwé and
Chongoene in a transparent way, with a close relationship and visible impact
for the donors.
