They share with us their vision to making Zamfara State a better place for generations to come.
OurSharedHope: What is ZamCharity?
ZamCharity: It is a group of concerned youth towards charity which in full is Zamfara Youth Charity Movement.
OurSharedHope: How did it start? Who started it?
ZamCharity: The founders thought that there's this undeniable fact that Zamfara State or North Western States of Nigeria are far left behind in terms of education and other social and youth engagements, so ZamCharity was established as a non political avenue for youth to take charge and have civil engagements. It started all in Zaria though with the CEO, Abubakar Sadiq, Secretary, Yusuf Anka and the Treasurers Habibu Labaran and Aliyu Dan Ume who are all students of the prestigious Ahamdu Bello University, Zaria.
OurSharedHope: What is your organisation structure like?
ZamCharity: We have an executive board of directors comprising of The CEO, The Secretary, The Facilitator, The Treasurer, The Financial Secretary, all Committee Heads and The Chairman, Local Government Coordinators.We also have a General Assembly comprising of The executive board of Directors and other Committee Members.
OurSharedHope: Where does funding come from?
ZamCharity: Donations come from Members of the family willing to donate.
OurSharedHope: What program have you been able to implement as a charity organisation?
ZamCharity: We have successfully had two orphanage visitations of which the first was more of donations while the second was during the Sallah period and so was more of celebration. we have also had a prison visit to the Gusau Medium Security Prison where we gave our support in terms of education (books) and health (medical aid, Clothing and hygiene materials).
OurSharedHope: And how was the response from your members and the orphanage.
ZamCharity: The orphanage maintainers were pleased as our members were proud. The prison inmates and staff were thrilled as they offered prayers and the Comptroller of Prisons, Zamfara State Command offered his support, prayers and sincere blessings in achieving all our aims and objectives.
OurSharedHope: What has been the difficulty in running such an organisation?
ZamCharity: Concluding and explaining decisions with members.
OurSharedHope: Walk me through joining the charity, what do i do to join?
ZamCharity: For now new members are added after undergoing proper orientation by an executive member, but we are hoping to create a more tangible way of adding member (registration).
OurSharedHope: People reason that the name Zamfara limits your membership. Do you have members who are not from Zamfara? Maybe honorary members?
ZamCharity: We have members who are outside Zamfara who are supporting the movement, it not just by the name, where ever we go to work we want people to know that we are from Zamfara and we are the Zamfara youth as the name implies.
OurSharedHope: Who are your biggest supporters?
ZamCharity: Our Members, Our Parents, Members of a sister Movement in Kaduna (Kaduna23), The Zaria Academy Class of 2015 and other well wishers from far.
OurSharedHope: Where does ZamCharity see itself in years to come?
ZamCharity: In the highest peak one could ever imagine.
OurSharedHope: When one thinks of a charity organisation, it is very easily attached to political reasons. How is ZamCharity any different?
ZamCharity: No, ZamCharity is a non political organization. It is a group of concerned youth hoping to make Zamfara State a better place.
OurSharedHope: What do you need in terms of support?
ZamCharity: We need prayers and donations in response to our projects for example the best you can give the #DontDumpDonate project is a book.
OurSharedHope: There is a call that ZamCharity should expand to other states, how do you feel about that call. Are you ready to expand?
ZamCharity: We are already not restricting our entire activities to Zamfara State we are making efforts to reach out to other states.
OurSharedHope: Go on...tell us more about this "Reaching out to other states"
ZamCharity: Yes, there are sister movements in Sokoto (Caliphate Charity Club), Kaduna (Kaduna23) and Yobe (BuildYobeFoundation) precisely who we are all reaching out to for partnership and collaborations.
OurSharedHope: Is there anything else, you would like our readers to know about ZamCharity?
ZamCharity: ZamCharity in full is Zamfara Youth Charity Movement. It does not only give charity materialistically, it also gives charity emotionally and productively. It is also a youth movement that focuses on youth empowerment and engagement in community development. it connects youths at a professional level as we organize workshops (The JollyPhonics of September 2017). It is registered under the Ministry of Youth and the Ministry of Rural and Community Development both in Zamfara State. We are working on expanding our registration to the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) as soon as possible. Permit us to use this medium to render our appreciation to all members and outside supporters, your faith, prayer and support remains our backbone in our service towards humanity.
