Our mission is to fight the root causes of poverty, in Africa and the Middle East, by supporting projects focusing on four core areas of work.
We believe that, together, Health, Education, Community development and the Environment are essential to sustainable development. Our projects take a holistic approach and are anchored in local communities ensuring that actions are relevant and viable for the long-term.
Health / Environment
Access to water and food security
The project aims to enable the community of N’sengoni, Northern Tanzania, to become water and food secure thanks to 80 residential rainwater harvesting systems and residential greenhouses. The project also includes providing a large-scale greenhouse, next to the Upendo Primary School, for the economic development of a women’s cooperative.
Health / Education
Supporting early childhood development and nutrition
The project aims to sustainably and holistically nurture Early Childhood Development (ECD), empower communities through education, and ensure year-round access to fresh, nutritious food for the Touching Tiny Lives (TTL) safe home children.
Health / Education
Sustainable environmental protection
The project aims to increase knowledge of and access to sustainable environmental protection resources in Monduli District, Arusha Region, Northern Tanzania.
Education / Environment
Supporting agricultural colleges
The project aims to improve conditions for young people undergoing initial training at four Fékama agricultural colleges in Madagascar. Over a 2-year period, this initiative will enable 460 young people (30% girls), aged between 14 and 18, to benefit from optimal training.
We have been supporting projects run by non-profit organisations since 1996, with the aim of helping poor communities in Africa and the Middle East to sustainably rise out of poverty.
The Foundation accepts proposals at all times of the year. Selected projects are submitted to the Foundation’s Board, which meets 4 times per year. We thank you for your interest in the Foundation and invite you to submit your request.
