Our mission

A village that remembers, learns and rises together.

From elders' wisdom to children's first books, TADA exists to weave Talla's past into its future. We organise around culture, learning, wellbeing and the land we share.

A living emblem carried through generations of Tang Clan storytelling — small, resilient, and unmistakably ours.

What we do

Four pillars, one village.

Every initiative we run answers to one of these long-term commitments.

Cultural Heritage

Preserving Talla's traditions, festivals, oral history and crafts for the next generation.

Education & Youth

Mentorship, scholarships and learning circles that open opportunities for every child.

Health & Welfare

Community health drives, awareness camps, and support for elders and families in need.

Livelihoods & Land

Sustainable agriculture, tree planting and small enterprise to strengthen village life.

Major project

A befitting Royal Palace for Talla.

TADA is leading the construction of a Royal Palace that honors the Fon's leadership and preserves Talla's heritage for future generations. This shared undertaking calls on the whole village — and all friends of Talla — to contribute.

Help us write the next chapter of Talla.

Whether you're a child of the village or a friend from afar, there is a place for you in TADA. Volunteer, contribute, or simply stay in touch.
