Bridge-Gap
is non membership in nature. We have volunteers and advisors
etc with separate roles in the organization.
Sponsors/Donors- This are individual/private people, donor
agencies and funding bodies and other international sponsors
that give money and donate other resources equipment, time
skills etc to Bridge-Gap. This is the most important group
because without them bridge-Gap will not be able to fund its
activities and projects.
Trustees- The Board of trustees approves and monitors the
project activities. They are involved in fundraising and guide
the other groups.
Advisors- they give useful advice and support on the project
design and implementation.
Management Staff & Volunteers- Manage the projects and
programs, implement planned projects. Also donate their time
(full or part-time), skills and training. All staff and volunteers
are appointed by the Board of trustees.
Partners & Networks- These are other foreign and local
non charitable organizations that Bridge-Gap work with to
achieve its objectives- like community based organizations,
age grade, associations, men and women groups etc
Beneficiaries- These are another important stakeholders being
the recipients of projects implemented- they are the people,
their villages and communities that Bridge-Gap assists to
improve their well being. In most cases, they help in implementing
planned projects.
