2nd quarter report - april to june 2025
We are delighted to share an update on just some of the projects we have been working on this quarter.
EYE CAMPS
Working alongside our partners on the ground and with the help of our generous supporters, we have been able to facilitate 36 eye camps throughout April, May and June. This has resulted in over 2,600 cataract surgeries taking place.
These life changing surgeries are vital in aiding the needy across rural areas of Kenya,Tanzania and Pakistan.
Sponsor an eye surgery today for only $60!

JBHT
We are excited to be working with our partners JBHT on a number of school extension and repair projects in Skardu, Pakistan. Around 2,000 children, the majority of whom are girls, will have access to school and a quality education which would otherwise not be available to them.

ANAMIL AL RAHMA
We currently sponsor 20 children in Iraq. The children have broken up for the school holidays and we will be fund raising for the next academic year for their education.
TAMANI FOUNDATION
Beta Charitable Trust are proud of the ongoing partnership with The Tamani Foundation where free nursery and primary education is provided to children in Matemwe, Zanzibar. We are very proud that 50% of our GSCE students have achieved grade A-B and will be persuing A Levels. Those students who have an aptitude for a more practical education will not be left behind. We are excited to share the progress of our new Vocational Training Centre, which will provide hands on training for Electricians, Plumbers, and Seamstresses. The centre will also provide a professional development program and further Teacher Training, especially for teachers of English, Maths and Science.

KIJANA KWANZA
Kijana Kwanza is a child and youth development charity, supporting orphaned and abandoned street children.
Beta Charitable Trust are proud to continue our partnership as we match fund their latest appeal, supporting the Chicken Expansion Campaign, where an additional 1,000 chicks will join the poultry farm.
Every child who arrives at Kijana Kwanza is malnourished, making access to nutritious food essential. Eggs are especially valuable as they are rich in protein and vital nutrients and help keep children satisfied and focused throughout the school day.

UK PROJECTS
Charity begins at home, and BCT are equally as passionate about assisting those inneed in the UK as well as internationally.
HAND ON HEART
BCT are proud to continue our partnership with HoH. We have recently supported their Spring Homeless Essential Campaign, where 1,500 essential packs were distributed to vulnerable groups throughout April and May.

Each drawstring bag will be filled with -
Polo Shirts
Baseball Caps
Underwear (3 pairs)
Deodorant
Wet Wipes
