Your Donations Keep Us Going!

Help Us Bridge the Gap

Every day across African communities, IRFF UK delivers life-changing relief in education, nourishment, clean water, and health and safety for women and children.
But right now, our finances are running low. We are dipping into general reserves to keep vital projects going.
Until now, every penny of your donations went directly to the cause. We want to keep it that way. Together, through monthly giving and collective support, we can reach the total sums each project requires.
Which will you choose to support today?

Slovo Study Group – South Africa

In the Joe Slovo township of Port Elizabeth, IRFF UK supports a small group of teenagers determined to complete their high school education online.
Despite power cuts and limited internet access, they remain focused on graduation and giving back to their community.
A total of £180 per month will ensure they stay on track for university – supported by several donors giving smaller monthly amounts.

New IT System for Destiny School – Uganda

Uganda’s national curriculum has shifted from rote learning to critical thinking, creativity, and digital literacy. To meet these demands, IRFF UK’s flagship project, Destiny Junior School, needs to upgrade its IT facilities.
We are fundraising £4,000 in total to build a computer lab and provide IT training for both pupils and teachers. This will equip Destiny’s learners and staff for a more connected, future-ready education. IRFF UK is focused on building schools for Africa and providing education that would otherwise not be accessible.

Period Poverty Campaign – 3 Countries

IRFF UK provides menstrual products and education to girls in Ghana, South Africa, and Uganda. This simple support prevents dropouts and restores confidence.
£300 per month will allow us to keep this campaign running strong. IRFF UK is committed to informing the world about the struggles of Period Poverty and helping these young women stay in school and receive an education.

SHINE Literacy Centre – South Africa

In the impoverished township of Walmer, Port Elizabeth, IRFF UK supports SHINE – a dynamic literacy centre in repurposed shipping containers.
It helps children aged 9–11 master English comprehension to succeed in an English-based curriculum.
We need £300 per month to support them – made possible through collective monthly gifts.

Destiny School – Uganda

IRFF UK’s longest-running project Destiny School has served underprivileged children in the rural town of Kibiri since 2009.
It currently supports 206 pupils with education, meals, and a safe environment. To relieve pressure on general funds and expand to full enrolment, we need:
• £300 per month for basic costs.
An additional £400 per month to grow to 400 pupils.

Walmer Soup Kitchen – South Africa

Each month, the Walmer Angels Group provides 500 hot meals to children and elderly people in the township of Walmer. For many, it’s their only meal of the day.
£200 per month keeps hunger at bay and restores dignity to the most vulnerable.

TVET for Girls – Ghana

In northern Accra, IRFF UK funds the training of girls in baking, sewing, and dressmaking. Led by local instructors, this project equips young women to launch small businesses and support their families.
£40 per month per girl provides training, materials, and mentorship. By supporting this project, you’re helping women gain skills to build a brighter future for themselves and their families.

Boreholes Across Africa

We are digging wells whenever funds allow, bringing clean water to communities where it’s desperately needed.
£4,000 per borehole can transform the lives of hundreds – especially young girls, who often walk long distances to fetch water, exposing them to risk of abuse and violence. With every borehole, we give girls back their time and their safety.

Please donate today and let us know which project you’d like to support. Whether regular or one-off, your gift will be deeply appreciated by the recipients.

Monthly donations of £10, £20, £40, or £100 can make a real impact – but every amount helps.
