Project Possible is run by a team of dedicated, passionate individuals - including trustees, staff and volunteers. Here are a few of them...
Philip has been a Trustee of the charity for seven years. A retired Civil Engineer, he is passionate about helping disadvantaged people see their dreams made possible. For Philip, a lasting spark came from visiting our partners in Kenya, who are delivering life changing surgery for children with the club foot condition. This visit followed a sponsored climb of Mount Kilimanjaro, which had helped to raise funds for our project in Uganda training and mentoring local farming communities.
Tony has had a career in marketing and communications and continues to work as an external expert to the European Commission on food promotion programmes. He volunteers for charities including Project Possible, developing prayer resources and providing translation work for partners in Latin America. Along with his wife he writes worship songs. His original spark for the charity was hearing Michael Wood speak, which led to Tony preaching at local churches. His spark now is being part of a team who share the same compassionate heart for Christ by delivering practical support to marginalised individuals and communities. But most of all his spark is to share the love of Christ that he has so freely received.
Kaye has been a Trustee for 5 years and is a retired G.P. In 2016 she was part of a small group from her church who visited our project in Uganda, working with local farming communities. Kaye found the experience an awesome and humbling one. As well as being a Trustee for Project Possible, Kaye has fundraised for a hospital in Ethiopia. She sees her spark as helping people to ignite their ambitions, alongside nurturing and supporting them on their journey.
Jonathan is a chartered accountant who has worked in the insurance and investment management industry in the city. He has previously been a trustee for a local night shelter and affordable housing charity in his hometown of Ipswich, but having joined Project Possible, he says it’s great to now be part of a wider team that is dedicated to helping others to develop capabilities and to see lives changed around the world. He sees creating sustainable futures and targeting long term needs as such a valuable aim.
