POA for SSAAP-Executive Director

This will help with administration while Heather is out of U.S.A.

Posted May 11, 2024

Work & Deliverables

I am in Africa for 2.5-4 years on end. We need a lawyer to draft a POA that could be used with JP Morgan Chase bank, that will allow my POA to withdrawal/wire funds to Africa for the project. We need the POA to be a document that I can sign online as well. The POA will be for Heather Cumming (Executive Director SSAAP, myself!) but the POA will be used for administration for the nonprofit (SSAAP). I will clarify when we discuss.

Simwatachela Sustainable Agricultural and Arts Program [SSAAP]

We are a grassroots organisation working to help rural Africa (Zambia and Sierra Leone) with clean drinking water via water wells. We also work with food sustainability and nutrition through simple irrigation systems (Water Reticulation Systems) so that people can grow food year-round. We are a small organisation, committed to serving the needs of the local people through basic human needs: water and food! SSAAP is also working in partnership with George Washington University Law School, with their Pro Bono Program (https://www.law.gwu.edu/pro-bono-program). Any attorney who wishes to work with SSAAP on any of its projects may also work with a GW Law student who would do much of the legwork, research, and work for the project, though supervised by a bar-certified attorney.
