Together we make change that lasts for generations

We believe that it is possible to build a better, fairer world if we work together. A world where vulnerable and marginalised communities are not denied an education, or adequate healthcare, or the chance to build a livelihood. 

With your support behind us, unlocking the power of people, we’ve achieved great things over the last year: 

  • Over 2,800,000 people have been able to get good quality education 
  • Nearly 435,000 people have been able to access better healthcare 
  • Nearly 30,000 people have been able to build livelihoods 
  • Nearly 1.95 million people have been able to make better lives for themselves and their communities. Working together they have: built peaceful communities, tackled gender based violence, prepared for disasters and created inclusive societies for people with disabilities.
