A Year of Doing Good
2024 has been a remarkable year for Anglican Overseas Aid, as we continued to partner with communities worldwide to create meaningful change.
Guided by a strengths-based approach, we worked alongside local organisations and community members to help them build resilience, reduce poverty, and respond to pressing challenges like climate change, natural disasters and inequality.
Our work spanned health, education, sustainable livelihoods, and emergency response, and our impact this year reflects the dedication and generosity of our supporters. Together, we’ve achieved incredible milestones.
- 1,245 supporters donated to our programs, fueling life-changing work across the globe.
- 188,730 people reached through our partners’ community-driven programs.
- In 5 countries, we assisted 40,862 people through emergency response efforts, providing vital aid to those in crisis.
- We delivered 16 international programs, tackling challenges like poverty, climate resilience, and women’s empowerment.
- 47% of our programs focused on building climate resilience, addressing both immediate and long-term environmental challenges.
- 121,266 women and girls were empowered through education, healthcare, and sustainable livelihood initiatives.
Transforming Communities Globally
These numbers represent lives touched, communities strengthened, and hope restored. Behind each figure lies a story of resilience:
- In Mozambique, we supported climate-smart agriculture to help families adapt to extreme weather.
- In Kenya, over 28,000 people participated in programs that addressed gender equality and disaster risk reduction.
- In Sri Lanka, women-led self-help groups provided savings, skills, and opportunities for a brighter future.
We also responded to urgent crises, from drought in East Africa to floods and displacement caused by conflict, demonstrating our ability to adapt and support those in need when it matters most.
A Year of Hope and Resilience
As we look back on 2024, we are deeply grateful for the supporters and partners who made these achievements possible. Each donation, act of generosity, and moment of care has contributed to building stronger communities and brighter futures.
A significant focus this year was climate action. Our partners implemented innovative projects that tackled climate challenges head-on, like restoring watersheds in Ethiopia and developing disaster response plans in Kenya. Programs like these not only address immediate concerns but also lay the groundwork for long-term sustainability and resilience.
Together, we’ve created a ripple effect of change that continues to grow. Let’s carry this momentum into 2025 and continue to bring hope, resilience, and transformation to those who need it most.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
