What is Co-Funding?

Co-funding with the ALMT allows individuals, other Trusts and Foundations, and Companies to contribute funds directly to individual, vetted and approved, project partnerships. With fifteen years of experience awarding grants and working in partnership with children’s organisations around the world, the ALMT is best placed to support you in your philanthropy.

The Thomas Fest Maternal and Paediatric Health clinic is located at The ALMT supported Awegys Secondary School, in Kigo, Uganda. This clinic provides the only health care to the entire village of Kigo, the school, and surrounding villages as well.

By offering pledges at The ALMT annual Burn’s Night Gala Dinner, guests are supporting the clinic to receive solar power and it is now able to treat a myriad of illnesses including Malaria, intestinal parasites, HIV, STDS, skin infections, and other childhood diseases.
