Support Our Work
We are dependent on the gifts from people who want to join and create a better world, and achieve the UN Global Goals, Agenda 2030.
You can contribute directly to one specific area in need of funding. The gifts sent to Yennenga Progress without such specification are distributed according to what is in the pipeline or in need of extra love right now.
In order to increase our opportunities for long-term planning and security in our operations, regular/monthly deposits are of great importance.
