Cork-Singida Partnership

WHO ARE WE?

The Cork-Singida Partnership is a registered charity set up over 30 years ago by UCC staff. During this period they have contributed over €1 million to healthcare projects in Singida, Tanzania, to help fight, amongst other scourges, malaria - still the second biggest killer in that country.

WHAT DO WE DO?

Each month, money is deducted from the salaries of more than 70 staff (present or retired) and sent to Tanzania via the Cork-Singida Partnership. Outside of members, the partnership is not at all that well known in UCC – possibly because, even in this era of tribunals, we have never been touched by the tongue of scandal.
