NEXT EVENT, OSLO FOOD FESTIVAL 2024
We are delighted to announce that Act Empowered has been invited by the esteemed Oslo Food Festival 2024 to conduct a fundraising event in support of our construction site and the well-being of the children we serve.
In 2023, our dedicated volunteers successfully raised approximately 7,500NOK through the sale of delicious waffles and cakes. And this year, we raised 20 000NOK. This accomplishment was made possible through the generous sponsorship of Tromaha Consultant, who not only supported the food festival but also became valued partners of Act Empowered.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Tromaha Consultant for their unwavering support and for covering all the costs associated with our participation in the festival, enabling us to maximize the impact of our fundraising efforts. The success of our collaboration has inspired us, and we eagerly look forward to being a part of yet another remarkable food festival in 2024.
At Act Empowered, we recognize the power of community and the significance of events such as the Oslo Food Festival in creating positive change. Through the collective efforts of passionate individuals, dedicated volunteers, and generous sponsors like Tromaha Consultant, we can continue to uplift the lives of the children under our care. Together, we are determined to make a lasting difference, and we eagerly anticipate the upcoming food festival as a platform to further our mission.
ACT Empowered's Ramadan Campaign - April 2024
In April 2024, ACT Empowered successfully conducted a Ramadan campaign, raising 23,829 NOK through the website Speils. We are incredibly grateful for the support that enabled us to assist families and children in need.
Our campaign aimed to support orphaned children and internally displaced families in the Somali region of Ethiopia. Your donations provided nutritious food and new clothes for Ramadan and Eid, ensuring these children could celebrate with dignity and pride.
In addition to meeting immediate needs, we focused on long-term solutions by aiming to raise 5,000 NOK per family to help them start their own businesses. These funds have empowered families to become economically independent, providing them with a sustainable source of income. Last year, similar efforts enabled many families to achieve remarkable growth and self-sufficiency.
100% of your donations went directly to these causes, making a tangible difference in the lives of those who need it most. Your generosity has transformed lives, allowing orphaned children to experience a joyful Ramadan and helping struggling families build a brighter future.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to this campaign. Your kindness and support are invaluable.
