Amos Trust believes that another world is possible, a world where justice flows, the silenced are heard and no one is forgotten. We work to challenge injustice, restore rights and create hope.
We work with vibrant grass-roots partners around the world who have unique local experience, expertise and connections — developing local solutions to global issues. Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do.
“In Europe, if you mention the word apartheid in South Africa almost everyone expresses their disagreement with it and how much they have been against it. If you mention Black Lives Matter in the UK, almost everyone is supportive of the civil right movement. But when it comes to us Palestinians, there’s only silence.” Ahmed Masoud writes about the current situation in East Jerusalem.

“India is burning. Coronavirus is spreading throughout the country with renewed and devastating force, as new daily cases, at the time of writing, surpass 360,000, and the total death toll passes the grim milestone of 200,000. Funeral pyres are burning in car parks, on pavements and beside rivers, as crematoriums struggle to cope with the influx of the dead.” Karin Joseph writes about the current situation in India.

“In the past few years, it’s been my great pleasure to be part of two large groups that have visited Nicaragua. We have gone to see the inspiring work CEPAD is doing in these communities that are facing the effects of climate change.” Peter Bone shares his experiences of travelling to Nicaragua with Amos Trust.
“When I was a girl, I remember the rainy seasons as having more rain. You used to know when to plant, but now you don’t. We have a climate that’s changed.” Rosa from La Concepción in Teustepe. Nicaragua is the fourth most at-risk nation in the world due to climate change. We equip rural communities in Nicaragua with the skills and resources needed to develop sustainable responses that lift them from poverty and promote food security.

After you’ve provided for your loved ones, leaving a legacy to Amos Trust allows us to find creative new ways to challenge injustice, build hope and create change. Our work simply couldn’t happen if we didn’t receive financial help from you, our supporters. Leaving a legacy to Amos in your will is one of the best ways you can do this, but we understand that it’s something that some people might find hard to think about. Please join us in creating this future by remembering Amos Trust in your will.
