We are a small charity with an aspiring vision to alleviate poverty, to provide healthcare and education to children, and to provide clean, safe and sustainable water to developing Africa. Here are some facts about us:
The name ‘Al-Ansari’ literally means ‘the Helpers’. In Zanzibar, we are known as the ‘Al-Ansar’.
We are a registered UK Charity based in the UK and therefore regulated by the Charities Commission
Our main work is based in the island of Zanzibar, which is just off the coast of Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, East Africa.
Without you, we could not possibly do any of the work we do, so your trust in us is not just invaluable, but it is essential. Our promise to you is that:
We will continue to maintain our 100% donation policy and only use the gift aid we receive on your donation to fund administrative expenses.
We will be transparent with the work we do on your projects, and not only will we show you evidence of delivery, we welcome you to visit to see for yourself.
In Swahili they say ‘tuko pamoja,’ which means ‘we are together.’ Together we will deliver on our promises to provide clean water, alleviate poverty and educate children.
