Our Partners
These are the organisations we partner with: locally run, pioneering, innovative, impactful, and a direct answer to the challenges of poverty and environmental damage.
One of our core criteria is to develop mutual and meaningful relationships with our partner, and as a result we can guarantee that any donated funds will go directly to those who need it.
NB 10% of donations go towards UK operations, but this directly supports our partners and their projects through campaigning, marketing, fund-raising etc.

Miners’ cooperatives delivering Fair Trade Gold for Cred Jewellery, Colombia. The Green Gold Corporation is a group of organisations committed to delivering quality gold whilst getting a fair deal for workers, their communities, and the environment.

Integrated Holistic Urban Development Project (IHA-UDP)
An all-inclusive community development project in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Currently reaching 40,000 people in the slum areas of the city, their innovative work is an example of communities taking responsibility for themselves.
We support their Education Sponsorship and Special Needs Provision, not only giving the poorest and most vulnerable children an education, but also a good meal, health screening, and the chance to escape the poverty trap. We’ve also helped to establish a Jewellers’ cooperative with IHA-UDP, enabling local jewellers to work safely and sustainably.
Women at Risk (WAR)
Rehabilitation & employment package for female sex workers in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Boasting an astounding 94% success rate, WAR has also been replicated in other cities in Ethiopia. A 12-month programme gives women the opportunity for counselling & therapeutic intervention, but also equips them with practical skills so that they can set up their own businesses or gain employment
We have seed-funded one of WAR’s major business enterprises, Café Chocolata and are investing in their HIV/AIDS training, treatment & care.
