ActionAid UK is making big changes. They want to change how they get money. This plan will go until 2028. It is a new way to work with people.
The charity has a child sponsorship program. This program started in 1972. The leaders, Taahra Ghazi and Hannah Bond, think it is not good now. Ghazi said donors picking pictures of children can be bad. It can feel like a business deal. This old way is from a different time.
ActionAid wants to stop old fundraising. Child sponsorship gave them 34% of money. But they think it is from the past. They want to build good friendships. They want to help communities in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
These changes will help ActionAid UK. They will look at their systems. Ghazi said they are making things fair. They will work with teams and communities. This will help make changes together.
This is a big change for ActionAid UK. They will stop the "sponsor a child" plan. Some people said it was not fair. The changes will show if they can build fair help.
