KUSASA PROGRAMMES
The Kusasa Project runs a number of programs on a regular (daily or weekly or annual) basis and others on a less frequent basis. The frequency of our programs depends on our resources (availability of volunteers, financial resources & transport) & school schedules as well as seasonal events (such as Outward Bound). We have just 3 full-time employees and nearly 1500 children being impacted in a variety of ways.

Much of what we provide is ideas, transport or costs for transport, volunteers to staff programs, management around planning - coordination – execution, materials, constant liaison with schools, administrations, volunteers, donors, the children and the communities. We make a considerable effort to build relationships with all our constituents, but most importantly to understand the children and the environment they live and go to school in.
