02 Activities

What the charity does

ACE works in East Africa, in particular, in Tanzania and also in Kenya. It supports the development of community schools in very disadvantaged areas providing the opportunity for children to attend school where they would otherwise be unlikely to do so. It also supports individual young people who are orphaned or from very impoverished circumstances to continue their education.
