Each project below is run by TADA volunteers and contributors. They are shaped to match the season, the need and the people available to lead.
Major project
Construction of a befitting Royal Palace
TADA is leading the effort to build a Royal Palace worthy of Talla's heritage and the dignity of the Fon. The palace will serve as a cultural landmark, a seat of traditional leadership, and a gathering place for ceremonies, meetings and visitors to the village.
This is our largest shared undertaking in recent years. Contributions of funds, materials, labour and expertise are warmly welcomed.
Current priority
A palace for Talla,
a home for our heritage.
Fundraising

Every contribution brings the palace closer to completion. Use the contacts on the banner to send your support or ask how you can get involved.
