The Mission of Mercy Trucks
Our Mission Statement
To provide a platform on a Christian foundation enabling volunteers to undertake improvement projects in their neighborhoods, along with opportunities to become involved in agricultural sustainability, community development, medical assistance and humanitarian relief projects around the world.
One of the key aims of the Mercy Trucks charity is to provide a platform where people from all walks of life, can join with our teams and assist in helping people to help themselves. This will be done in our home neighborhoods by working with and encouraging young people to undertake community projects such as building or looking after recreational facilities etc, this will help in promoting a sense of achievement and ownership over their facilities.
It is intended that this will also act as a platform to interest young people to travel and undertake voluntary work in developing nations. The types of projects being undertaken will include long term community development projects and the encouragement of micro enterprise. It is our aim to support and work alongside other organizations and promote agricultural development thus creating self-sufficiency and an element of economic sustainability in all developing communities, including helping in the restoration of areas recently cleared of land-mines.
The trustee/directors and staffs are working on a voluntary basis, therefore these costs and expenses are not incurred by charity, allowing 100% of the moneys donated to go for the intended propose.
