Community Development Programme
Here, through partnerships with various other organisations, HJA is able to support you and any projects you may have in mind for your own community. Whether it’s starting a poultry project, tree planting, micro-loans or goat production, HJA has the connections to ensure you’re supported on your project.
The Community Involvement Program, (alumni program), connects VIP graduates who have innovative project ideas for their community, with the tools and resources to get them started. HJA supports its alumni by providing training to those looking to lead projects in community prosperity within their own local areas. HJA provides start up funds in the form of small grants, workshops in proposal and report writing, in addition to hands-on skills that will lead alumni initiatives into self-sustaining projects with measurable impact.
