Introduction
Al-Amanah was registered as a charity in August 209 to provide aid support to
children and families mainly in Horn of Africa. The charity was set up out of a deep
conviction to support children and young people and to address the needs of the
most vulnerable and exploited people of our society.
Prior to the charity registration in 2002, many individual families, majority of Eritrean
origin, gathered and collected their effort to help poor families and orphans living in
the camp in the border between Sudan and Eritrea. The number of families that
joined and showed their willingness to contribute started to grow which led to the
registration of Al-Amanah as a non-profit making organisation with charity
commission in UK.
Objectives
The objectives of the Trust are:
To advance the education of the hearing impaired pupils, mainly orphans living
in a camp between the boarder of Sudan and Eritrea.
To advance education and training of widows, orphans, young adults, and men
and women of low-income families.

Al-Amanah – How It Started
In the 2001 a group of London based Eritreans initiated a financial support program
for the most deprived families in the refugee camps in East Sudan. The idea then
developed and more focus was directed at children, particularly orphans. Al-Amanah
has continued running this child support scheme on a small level due to the lack of
resources and expertise.
In 2008 Al-Amanah members agreed that a professional organisation, with skills and
resources, were vital for the continuation and progress of the program. A decision
was made to register Al-Amanah as a charity organisation in the UK, and in 2009, the
charity commissioner issued Al-Amanah a charity number.
Current Activities of Al-Amanah
Orphan sponsorship program
This program has attracted people who felt responsibility towards children and the
East Sudan refugee camps. Today, Al Amanah has managed to find a number of
sponsors who offer a monthly contribution that covers the needs of an orphan for
a whole month. Al-Amanah provides every sponsor with detailed evidence of how
his/her money is spent, along with photos of the orphan child which is regularly
updated on Al-Amanah’s website.
1. Ramadan Program
Al-Amanah provide a special program during the blessed month of Ramadan,
which enables people to enjoy the mercy and true meaning of support and
solidarity during such a time. The program offered is daily Iftar for a group of
people.
Future plans
The current economic climate has added significantly to the difficulties faced by our charity in fund-raising. Therefore, the effort of finding a new venue that gives a wider scope of opportunities and variety of income sources for fund-raising has significantly stepped up. One of the fruit’s of this was to start establishing projects that will be self financed, both, fully or partly, to secure their continuity.
The trustees are fully aware of the challenges facing them ahead and committed to working together, as a team, to enable the charity to achieve its objectives in the most effective way possible. As the fund is the most important element, supporting core activities of the organisation; therefore, a team with strong competence has been set up in an attempt to increase the fund level, including both short and long term.
The management board is aware of the importance to have a strong governing policies and to ensure that a full plan of programs have been laid down, both, to individuals and groups, and are involved in the work to empower them on how these policies and procedures should be implemented.
We strongly believe in the continuous development of our work, and working in partnership with others to achieve for better result.
