Alan Kerins Projects
(IE, CHY16974) Browse events
YTD Raised: €0.00Alan Kerins Projects (AKP) is a development organisation working to improve the lives of those living in poverty in the developing world. Our main focus has been on working in poor communities, in partnership with organisations representing the most vulnerable young people in those communities, particularly in Zambia. We work with local partners on initiatives which assist them to become self-sufficient and sustainable. We work closely with local organisations, groups and leaders to assess the communities overall needs and to identify the most efficient and effective means of addressing these issues. We strive to ensure that the efforts made by agencies, foundations, companies, individuals and other supports of Alan Kerins Projects are more than matched by our own efforts to deliver maximum impact from our programme of work.
