ACE Truck Group Appeal

Every charity needs the right equipment and materials and it is often as important as having the correct ideas in order to run projects most effectively. So, when ACE Africa expanded its work into the northern Tanzanian region of Arusha, it needed a new vehicle in order to enable it to reach the remote villages with whom it works. Also, the cars ACE uses in Bungoma and Siaya in eastern kenya will in due course need replacing.

These factors led to the creation of the ACE Truck Group. This group was set up in order to raise funds for the purchase of vehicles and cars for ACE's work in Africa. It is comprised of supporters and donors and is open to anyone to join. The villages that ACE works with are often very rural and sometimes isolated. Access can prove difficult due to their remoteness and the broken roads that lead to them. Vehicles are not so much a benefit as a necessity!

Thanks to the effort and commitment of the ACE Truck Group, enough money has been raised to allow ACE to purchase a new vehicle for its work in Tanzania which is proving to be a massive help. Below is a picture of the brand new Toyota and you can read what ACE Africa's founder, Ms Joe Waddington has to say about it.

'Please do pass on all our thanks and appreciation to the Ace Truck Group for the generous donation and support that have enabled us to get this wonderful vehicle. It will make the work of the staff considerably more effective and comfortable as they will be able to coordinate their activities more easily and without doubt double the number of beneficiaries they visit in a day - somewhat more efficient than walking miles a day!
