As we mark Trustees Week 2023, we want to take a moment to recognise the dedication of our trustees here at Kidasha, and trustees everywhere who play a vital role in the world of charitable organisations.
Champions of Change
Trustees Week is an annual campaign dedicated to highlighting the contributions made by trustees. These individuals generously offer their time, expertise, and unwavering commitment to guide, support, and lead organisations like ours, with a shared mission to create positive change. This year’s theme of ‘Many voices. Working together. With purpose.’ rings very true to our organisation.
