Real Aid

Real Aid is an international non-governmental, non-political, non-religious independent organisation which is constituted as a charity under a memorandum and articles of association, the charity number being 1089316. It has an established network with headquarters in Beverley, East Yorkshire and international offices in Sierra Leone, Albania and Bulgaria

OBJECTIVES

"To advance education worldwide and for the public benefit to relieve persons and in particular children who are suffering sickness, need, hardship or distress anywhere in the world as a result of famine, drought, flood, war or any other calamity"

HISTORY

Real Aid, based in Beverley commenced operation in 2001. Since then we have delivered aid to Albania, Sierra Leone, Kenya, Asia, Moldova, Ukraine, Romania, Albania and Lebanon. Much of this aid is donated by the general public and businesses throughout the UK.  Aid is sourced and containerised at the Beverley aid supply centre before shipping to our recipient countries. It is then distributed by our own “in country staff” to the poorest people and marginalised communities as well as orphanages and institutions.

FUNDING

Unlike many other organisations Real Aid does not rely on outside funding, all present costs can be met from income from our charity shops. Any additional funding will enable us to expand projects.  This is very important to our organisation it means that when we receive a private donation we can guarantee that the donation goes directly to help others, in some cases the money is simply wired directly to our teams overseas.
