Agapao

Smithy Bridge church has discoverd the work of Agapao after a young man from the church, Stephen Pautard visited Uganda as part of his Duke of Edinburgh's Award.

Agapao means 'I love you, unconditionally', the love that Jesus shows for us all.

Agapao International works globally to empower communities by working with them and not for them, enabling sustainable change.

A large part of their focus is the careful selection and training of Community Development mnagaers who visit villages and communities sourcing local volunteers to train. These volunteers then work with their own community who receive a Community Impact Kit.

Please visit their website for examples of the work they do.
