GAMBIA:
PEOPLE FEEDING PEOPLE
People Feeding People
Project Gambia is a Catholic Charity which was set up to support children in The Gambia (West Africa), one of the World's poorest Countries. We work in partnership with our Catholic Church both here and in The Gambia to support St. John’s School for the Deaf in Serrekunda, as well as St. Patrick’s Lower Basic School and St. Joseph’s Nursery School in Darsilami. Together, we support the education and feeding of more than 1,000 of the World's most disadvantaged children.
OUR MISSION
Our core mission is to ensure that every child we support receives a hot and nutritious meal at School every day, helping to combat hunger while also providing them with an effective education.
Inspired by our faith and with thanks to our fantastic supporters, we are able to transform the lives of the 1,000+ children that we help.
WHAT WE DO
While supporting the School Feeding Programmes, we have also been able to supply the children with School Uniforms, School Bags packed full of essential educational materials and Rosaries. We also work with St. John's School for the Deaf to provide hearing aids.

ALIEU'S STORY
Alieu was a Pupil of St. John's School for the Deaf suffering from a rare disability causing him to be born without any external ears. Part of this condition resulted in him being born Deaf.
We were able to secure a Visa for Alieu to come to Scotland in 2019 for medical treatment. Through our partnership with the NHS. Alieu was able to hear for the first time in his life on his 14th Birthday.
