2015 Annual Report


Last year, 2015, was another big year for Candlelight. The organization has been expanding its grant-making to better address communities’ challenges. This has been happening at a time funds have been shrinking; at a time the non-proit sector in Somaliland has been experiencing hard times.We are proud that Candlelight’s activities have positively impacted thousands of community members in all parts of the country.

The programmes of the organization have been devoted to the most critical challenges of Somaliland communities viz. food security, education, humanitarian emergencies, climate change, environmental degradation, and gender based violence.

I am very much confident that Candlelight will grow into new heights in future to address community challenges and word towards the realization of its mission.

Finally, I would like to give my sincere thanks to the members of the Board, their judgment and dedication to doing what is right for the organization is unparalleled. I would also appreciate the energy, commitment and enthusiasm of the Staff, and our development partners for their various contributions for us to reach our target beneficiaries.

Ahmed Ibrahim Awale
Chair of the Board of Directors
