Minutes of First AGM - 30/12/2017

Family, I know any curious Saniaga who in one way or another did not make it to the AGM is anxious to be updated.

I will be very brief therefore in light that actions are better than words/promises.

We discussed to Take SANIAGA to the next level. One key thing to identify with Saniaga is through registration or payment of life membership (500 & 5000 respectively).

You therefore shall be able to join Saniaga projects, depending on areas of interest and collaboration.

As from the first AGM, the Organization decided;

1. To run a sponsorship/fellowship fund to support needy yet bright learners.

2. To set up a community library in aim to support 1 above, act as a resource point, be an immediate Saniaga office, reach out to community.

3. Undertake a Saniaga Yoghurt project as a business idea.

4. Through a Health program, engage people on maternal and child care in partnership with local health facilities.

The 4 points of engagement were deeply discussed, timelines set and reporting is after 3 months when the committees in charge shall submit their doing to the executive.

You are updated. For questions and clarifications please call 0700186018.
