Interventions

Another successful collaboration with a young British Sports Charity, Kicking Off.

The collaboration with the charity focuses on the organisation of football/sports tournaments and events, and sponsorships of local talent and sports institutions.

The aim is to enhance efforts SVG has undertaken in the Education field in the past few years. Aside from our support for local schools (renovating and constructing new classrooms, supplying support staff and donating educational materials), we will now be involved in the organization of local sports competitions on a yearly basis, and we will also provide support to local sports organizations in need of sponsorships, equipment, amd talent development.

water and sanitation

So far, 25 community filters, each covering a population of 200, and some 200 family filters have been delivered in numerous communities that lack adequate sources of clean water -and whose population thus suffers from easily preventable water borne diseases -including diarrhoea, one of the top five causes of death for children under the age of 5.
