More information
ASAP stands for African Support & Assistance Project, it is a UK charity, based at Mid-Cheshire College, dedicated to the support of education and communities in Africa. The charity was born from the desire of a group of college staff to do something that would benefit a school or community in Africa - the only continent in the world where living standards have fallen in the last two decades and the daily human misery has increased. In the initial meetings of the ASAP group we decided to offer assistance to Befole Primary School in Lesotho. This was one of a number of schools who we considered (taking advice from the Charity for African Education who are involved in that region). All are desperately in need of help (Befole lost its building in a hurricane) but we could have chosen any one of many others – we do hope to spread our efforts eventually.
