Missions

To promote the empowerment of orphaned young adults in Ghana, TSF partnered with Orphan Aid Africa to support the YASS (Young Adult Support Service) centre. This centre offered an internet connection and access to ICT to give young people the means to succeed in their studies and professional lives.

Violent fighting between Russian and Georgian forces in the breakaway region of South Ossetia forced 160,000 civilians to settle temporarily in camps where living conditions were particularly difficult. At the request of OCHA, TSF deployed to provide telecom facilities for UNHCR-led assessments in the west of the country. More than 300 families were also able to contact their relatives during telephony operations.
