Founded in 2012 Mango Tree Goa is a UK registered
charity which supports disadvantaged children from slums
and similar conditions in Goa regardless of their
religion, caste or gender. The charity is administered
entirely voluntarily which means that more of your money
is available to fund projects on the ground in Goa.
We believe that children have the right to a healthy,
educated childhood, to be safe from abuse, to attend
school, to be treated with respect and to be heard. They
have the right to act like children and to play. We know
that education is the main route out of poverty. Not
only does it give children the knowledge and skills to
improve their own lives but when they have families of
their own their children will have a better chance of
surviving and thriving. Our projects therefore focus on
education and aim to ensure that marginalised children
access and remain in mainstream school and have the
opportunity to reach their full potential. We also
recognise that nutrition, good health, the provision of
uniforms and school bags and the chance to play and
enjoy the world about us all help children’s chances of
success and we target our funding at these areas too.
We mainly fund two projects; the Mango House and Mango
Tree House projects, which are both located close to
Mapusa in North Goa. Our projects provide government
registered pre-primary and afternoon tuition classes.
Around 260 disadvantaged children attend these
Government registered activities daily and we are proud
to report that more than half of the children attending
are girls.
You can read more about us and our projects
here on our
website. All of what we do is made possible by the
generosity of donors, fundraisers and a small number of
grant making bodies. We would love to do more but we
need your help to do so. Please click on the image below

us, what our supporters make possible on the ground in
Goa and how you could help.
