THIS MARCH, CHAMPION EQUALITY AND PROVE THAT WE ARE ONE
Your donation will provide a child with access to life-changing equality programmes, empowering girls and young women, including people with disabilities and supporting refugees.
Our Goal
By 31st March 2026, we’re aiming to raise £75,000 to provide 300 children and young people with an entire year of access to our transformative equality programmes.

HOW DO OUR EQUALITY PROGRAMMES MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
Empowering girls and young women
We aim to increase female participation in our programmes, leadership roles, and technical skilling, thereby reducing their vulnerability and empowering them to thrive. We provide support to help girls and young women break barriers and lead.
Inclusion of people with disabilities
Brass for Africa is a leader in implementing inclusive music programmes that actively involve and appreciate individuals with various disabilities, including neurological disorders like autism spectrum disorders. We strive to increase awareness among the population regarding the presence and needs of people with different abilities.
Supporting refugees and displaced communities
In humanitarian settings like the Bidibidi refugee settlement, we bring the power of music to create opportunities for thousands of young refugees. Our programmes focus on training, startups, and linkage to services, ensuring refugees have equitable opportunities.
