This term year 6 are doing money matters as their topic.On Monday they had a lady from actionaid called Anne who has over 20 years experience.She told year 6 about the work they do and where the money year 6 raise will go towards. Actionaid work in many poorer countries with the whole community. They have lots of different projects to care for different communitys needs like
  • Farming
  • Irrigation
  • Animal loans
  • Equipment
  • Health
  • Water
  • Savings(Money)groups
  • Education
  • City life
  • Emergencies
  • Preventing problems E.G storms
  • Rebuilding lives
  • Campains
They work around the world in 40 diffrent countries.Here are some interesting facts-
  • 1 in 8 people go hungry every night,mostly children
  • 1 in 3 familys live under £1 a day
  • 95% of the worlds wealth is owned by men
  • In Africa ladies aren't allowed to own land
  • Actionaid work with over 20 million people 
 In Africa females do not get treated as equally as males.For example they can not own machines,if the man owns a farm and he dies the lady will get kicked out along with her children,if there is a boy in the family and the father is dead then the boy will grow up to take over and look after the mother and other children.
